Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP3_Moderate
The NM_001371596.2(MFSD8):c.1322A>G(p.Tyr441Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000684 in 1,461,854 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Y441F) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
The p.Y441C variant (also known as c.1322A>G), located in coding exon 11 of the MFSD8 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1322. The tyrosine at codon 441 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Uncertain:1
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 7 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 441 of the MFSD8 protein (p.Tyr441Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs749153763, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MFSD8-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 533375). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MFSD8 protein function with a positive 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.
