Genes affected
SLC7A7 (HGNC:11065): (solute carrier family 7 member 7) The protein encoded by this gene is the light subunit of a cationic amino acid transporter. This sodium-independent transporter is formed when the light subunit encoded by this gene dimerizes with the heavy subunit transporter protein SLC3A2. This transporter is found in epithelial cell membranes where it transfers cationic and large neutral amino acids from the cell to the extracellular space. Defects in this gene are a cause of lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 6 of the SLC7A7 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLC7A7 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs373812507, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLC7A7-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 566917). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
