Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BP4_StrongBP6BS2
The NM_001148.6(ANK2):c.8166G>A(p.Met2722Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000116 in 1,613,948 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M2722L) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided    Uncertain:1 
Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported in ClinVar (ClinVar Variant ID# 35691; Landrum et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Located in exon 38, which is reported as being expressed in a brain-specific transcript (Otto et al, 1991; Cunha et al, 2008; Wu et al, 2015) -
Long QT syndrome    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2722 of the ANK2 protein (p.Met2722Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs193922637, gnomAD 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ANK2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35691). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The isoleucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect 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. -
not specified    Benign:1 
Variant summary: ANK2 c.8166G>A (p.Met2722Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 1613948 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00016 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD (v4.0.0) database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 16 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ANK2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. c.8166G>A has been reported in the literature in a cohort of individuals affected with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (e.g., Verheul_2023), however without strong evidence for causality (e.g., lack of co-occurrence and co-segregation data). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication was ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37967257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35691). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Cardiovascular phenotype    Benign:1 
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
