Genetic Variant SLC44A4:p.Arg6Gln (chr6-31878964-C-T) – ACMG Classification: Benign (-8 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BP4_StrongBS2

The NM_025257.3(SLC44A4):c.17G>A(p.Arg6Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000682 in 1,613,616 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R6L) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

SLC44A4 (HGNC:13941): (solute carrier family 44 member 4) The protein encoded by this gene may be a sodium-dependent transmembrane transport protein involved in the uptake of choline by cholinergic neurons. Defects in this gene can cause sialidosis, a lysosomal storage disease. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
