Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -16 ACMG points: 0P and 16B. BP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2
The NM_017617.5(NOTCH1):c.4031C>T(p.Thr1344Met) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000448 in 1,592,770 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T1344R) has been classified as Likely benign.

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. -

Variant summary: NOTCH1 c.4031C>T (p.Thr1344Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00045 in 215554 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 14-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NOTCH1 causing Aortic Valve Disease phenotype (3.1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.4031C>T has been reported in the literature as a VUS in individuals affected with left-sided congenital heart disease (Kerstjens-Frederikse_2016) and thoracic aortic aneurysm (Salmasi_2022), without strong evidence for causality. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Aortic Valve Disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26820064, 35830949). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 449810). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
