Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_005505.5(SCARB1):c. variant causes a exon region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.
SCARB1 (HGNC:1664): (scavenger receptor class B member 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane receptor for high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL). The encoded protein mediates cholesterol transfer to and from HDL. In addition, this protein is a receptor for hepatitis C virus glycoprotein E2 and facilitates cell entry by the virus, SARS-CoV2.
