Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 1P and 5B. PP5BP4BS2
The NM_017849.4(TMEM127):c.494A>G(p.His165Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000013 in 1,614,006 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. H165H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:1 
The p.H165R variant (also known as c.494A>G), located in coding exon 3 of the TMEM127 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 494. The histidine at codon 165 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 165 of the TMEM127 protein (p.His165Arg). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TMEM127-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 241224). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
