Genes affected
CDK5RAP2 (HGNC:18672): (CDK5 regulatory subunit associated protein 2) This gene encodes a regulator of CDK5 (cyclin-dependent kinase 5) activity. The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the centrosome and Golgi complex, interacts with CDK5R1 and pericentrin (PCNT), plays a role in centriole engagement and microtubule nucleation, and has been linked to primary microcephaly and Alzheimer's disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

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

The c.4325C>T (p.S1442L) alteration is located in exon 29 (coding exon 29) of the CDK5RAP2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4325, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 1442 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1442 of the CDK5RAP2 protein (p.Ser1442Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs376138280, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CDK5RAP2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 158148). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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.
