Genes affected

FAM9A (HGNC:18403): (family with sequence similarity 9 member A) This gene is a member of a gene family which arose through duplication on the X chromosome. The encoded protein may be a nuclear protein that is localized to the nucleolus, and has some similarity to a synaptonemal complex protein. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.251A>C (p.E84A) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 3) of the FAM9A gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 251, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 84 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
