Genes affected
BFSP1 (HGNC:1040): (beaded filament structural protein 1) This gene encodes a lens-specific intermediate filament-like protein named filensin. The encoded protein is expressed in lens fiber cells after differentiation has begun. This protein functions as a component of the beaded filament which is a cytoskeletal structure found in lens fiber cells. Mutations in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive cortical juvenile-onset cataract. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. 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, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with glutamine at codon 468 of the BFSP1 protein (p.Glu468Gln). The glutamic acid residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and glutamine. This variant is present in population databases (rs780229198, ExAC 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BFSP1-related disease.
