Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2BP4_Strong

The NM_001004064.2(OR8J3):c.765G>T(p.Met255Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,498 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M255T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.765G>T (p.M255I) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the OR8J3 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 765, causing the methionine (M) at amino acid position 255 to be replaced by an isoleucine (I). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
