The NM_001172501.3(SLC6A2):c.645-5967C>T variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.114 (AC=17,255) in the gnomAD database across 151,980 control chromosomes, including 1,082 homozygotes. The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.159. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.

Genes affected

SLC6A2 (HGNC:11048): (solute carrier family 6 member 2) This gene encodes a member of the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter family. This member is a multi-pass membrane protein, which is responsible for reuptake of norepinephrine into presynaptic nerve terminals and is a regulator of norepinephrine homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause orthostatic intolerance, a syndrome characterized by lightheadedness, fatigue, altered mentation and syncope. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

SLC6A2 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome due to NET deficiency

  Inheritance: AD, Unknown Classification: SUPPORTIVE, LIMITED Submitted by: Orphanet, Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), PanelApp Australia

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	BP4Computational evidence suggests no impact		Computational evidence supports benign — no pathogenic computational or splicing signal (BP4); Splicing verdict: benign (Strong).; Germline computational verdict: benign (Strong).
	BA1Stand-alone benign allele frequency (>5%)		GnomAD effective popmax AF >5% — BA1 stand-alone benign; GnomAD reliable popmax AF = 0.1586 — exceeds 5%% threshold (BA1 applied)
