Genes affected

ULK2 (HGNC:13480): (unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 2) This gene encodes a protein that is similar to a serine/threonine kinase in C. elegans which is involved in axonal elongation. The structure of this protein is similar to the C. elegans protein in that both proteins have an N-terminal kinase domain, a central proline/serine rich (PS) domain, and a C-terminal (C) domain. The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.

The c.2953A>G (p.T985A) alteration is located in exon 26 (coding exon 26) of the ULK2 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2953, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 985 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
