The G187S variant in the FKTN gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The G187S variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The G187S variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Additionally, a missense variant in a nearby residue (H186R) has been reported as a homozygous finding in an individual with Walker-Warburg syndrome (Manzini et al., 2008), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. We interpret G187S as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Walker-Warburg congenital muscular dystrophy Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 187 of the FKTN protein (p.Gly187Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (PMID: 31862442). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 450015). 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 not expected to disrupt FKTN protein function. 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. -
