Genes affected
RETREG1 (HGNC:25964): (reticulophagy regulator 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a cis-Golgi transmembrane protein that may be necessary for the long-term survival of nociceptive and autonomic ganglion neurons. Mutations in this gene are a cause of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type IIB (HSAN IIB), and this gene may also play a role in susceptibility to vascular dementia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011]

The c.1490A>G (p.H497R) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 9) of the FAM134B gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1490, causing the histidine (H) at amino acid position 497 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

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 disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FAM134B-related disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs746011053, ExAC 0.03%). This sequence change replaces histidine with arginine at codon 497 of the FAM134B protein (p.His497Arg). The histidine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between histidine and arginine.
