Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BP4_Strong
The NM_024753.5(TTC21B):c.19A>G(p.Lys7Glu) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00126 in 794,418 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/24 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★).

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:3
The TTC21B c.19A>G, p.Lys7Glu variant (rs375721812), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 331843). This variant is found in the European population with an allele frequency of .16% (52/32148 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The lysine at position 7 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.188). Although evidence suggests that p.Lys7Glu may be a rare benign variant, there is insufficient information to determine its clinical significance with certainty.
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge
Jeune thoracic dystrophy;C0687120:Nephronophthisis Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 7 of the TTC21B protein (p.Lys7Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs375721812, gnomAD 0.2%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TTC21B-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 331843). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 4 Uncertain:1
This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

TTC21B-related disorder Uncertain:1
The TTC21B c.19A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Lys7Glu. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.16% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
