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.G13E variant (also known as c.38G>A), located in coding exon 1 of the TERF2IP gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 38. The glycine at codon 13 is replaced by glutamic acid, 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. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
