Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 2P and 2B. PM2 BP4_Moderate

The NM_018975.4(TERF2IP):​c.10G>T​(p.Ala4Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A4A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

TERF2IP (HGNC:19246): (TERF2 interacting protein) Enables G-rich strand telomeric DNA binding activity and phosphatase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of NIK/NF-kappaB signaling; regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and regulation of protein modification process. Located in chromosome, telomeric region; cytosol; and nuclear body. Part of shelterin complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

KARS1 (HGNC:6215): (lysyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. Lysyl-tRNA synthetase is a homodimer localized to the cytoplasm which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.A4S variant (also known as c.10G>T), located in coding exon 1 of the TERF2IP gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 10. The alanine at codon 4 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
