Genes affected
PLEKHG5 (HGNC:29105): (pleckstrin homology and RhoGEF domain containing G5) This gene encodes a protein that activates the nuclear factor kappa B (NFKB1) signaling pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive distal spinal muscular atrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.767C>T (p.S256F) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 7) of the PLEKHG5 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 767, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 256 to be replaced by a phenylalanine (F). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

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

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 256 of the PLEKHG5 protein (p.Ser256Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs376782083, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PLEKHG5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 580271). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
