Genes affected
A2ML1 (HGNC:23336): (alpha-2-macroglobulin like 1) This gene encodes a member of the alpha-macroglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is thought to be an N-glycosylated monomeric protein that acts as an inhibitor of several proteases. It has been shown to form covalent interactions with proteases, and has been reported as the p170 antigen recognized by autoantibodies in the autoimmune disease paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP; PMID:20805888). Mutations in these gene have also been associated with some cases of Noonan syndrome (NS; PMID:24939586) as well as some cases of otitis media (PMID:26121085). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 12, 2019Variant summary: A2ML1 c.1686T>G (p.Val562Val) alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0024 in 241896 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.034 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 15 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 8500-folds over the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in A2ML1 causing Noonan Syndrome phenotype (4e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. Two ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
