The variant received 2 classification points (ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025). O3_Moderate

The NR_125367.1(MYHAS):n.168-22154G>A variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. Note: NR_125367.1 is not a MANE Select or MANE Plus Clinical transcript for MYHAS; the reported annotation may differ from that of the MANE-designated reference transcript for this gene. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 8.13). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign/Likely Benign (★).

Genes affected

MYH2 (HGNC:7572): (myosin heavy chain 2) Myosins are actin-based motor proteins that function in the generation of mechanical force in eukaryotic cells. Muscle myosins are heterohexamers composed of 2 myosin heavy chains and 2 pairs of nonidentical myosin light chains. This gene encodes a member of the class II or conventional myosin heavy chains, and functions in skeletal muscle contraction. This gene is found in a cluster of myosin heavy chain genes on chromosome 17. A mutation in this gene results in inclusion body myopathy-3. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

MYHAS (HGNC:50609): (myosin heavy chain gene cluster antisense RNA) Predicted to enable primary miRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in response to muscle activity and skeletal muscle fiber development. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on gene expression. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Classification according to ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025

Classification was made for transcript:
