Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_005460.4(SNCAIP):āc.1517C>Gā(p.Ser506Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,736 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (ā ).
SNCAIP (HGNC:11139): (synuclein alpha interacting protein) This gene encodes a protein containing several protein-protein interaction domains, including ankyrin-like repeats, a coiled-coil domain, and an ATP/GTP-binding motif. The encoded protein interacts with alpha-synuclein in neuronal tissue and may play a role in the formation of cytoplasmic inclusions and neurodegeneration. A mutation in this gene has been associated with Parkinson's disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.1517C>G (p.S506C) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 7) of the SNCAIP gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1517, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 506 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
