Genes affected
 CHRNA5  (HGNC:1959):  (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 5 subunit) The protein encoded by this gene is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit and a member of a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that mediate fast signal transmission at synapses. These receptors are thought to be heteropentamers composed of separate but similar subunits. Defects in this gene have been linked to susceptibility to lung cancer type 2 (LNCR2).[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

ACMG classification
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-1.02). 
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0321 (4886/152216) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0508 (3457/68010). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0494. There are 111 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 2280 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. 
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 111 AR gene
