Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2F    Pathogenic:1 
This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 128 of the HSPB1 protein (p.Gln128Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs558882005, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant HSPB1-related conditions (PMID: 28144995, 31069529; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 360738). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt HSPB1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects HSPB1 function (PMID: 28144995). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

- -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease    Uncertain:1 
- -
Inborn genetic diseases    Benign:1 
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
