Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The POMGNT2 c.71G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg24Gln. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an acutely ill infant (eTable 2 in Maron et al 2023. PubMed ID: 37432431). This variant is reported in 0.071% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Jun 13, 2023
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.71G>A (p.R24Q) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the POMGNT2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 71, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 24 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 24 of the POMGNT2 protein (p.Arg24Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs139245562, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with POMGNT2-related conditions (PMID: 37432431). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436370). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POMGNT2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
