Genes affected
A2ML1 (HGNC:23336): (alpha-2-macroglobulin like 1) This gene encodes a member of the alpha-macroglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is thought to be an N-glycosylated monomeric protein that acts as an inhibitor of several proteases. It has been shown to form covalent interactions with proteases, and has been reported as the p170 antigen recognized by autoantibodies in the autoimmune disease paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP; PMID:20805888). Mutations in these gene have also been associated with some cases of Noonan syndrome (NS; PMID:24939586) as well as some cases of otitis media (PMID:26121085). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: A2ML1 c.1476+8C>T alters a nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0023 in 248584 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 8 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 573 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in A2ML1 causing Noonan Syndrome phenotype (4e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1476+8C>T in individuals affected with Noonan Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
