This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 256 of the SLC1A4 protein (p.Glu256Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs201278558, gnomAD 0.5%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with spastic tetraplegia, thin corpus callosum, and progressive microcephaly (PMID: 25930971, 26041762, 26138499). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265259). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SLC1A4 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC1A4 function (PMID: 26041762). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25930971, 26138499, 25256405, 27193218, 29652076, 26041762) -
Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.766G>A (p.E256K) alteration is located in coding exon 4 of the SLC1A4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 766, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 256 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.022% (62/282524) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.473% (49/10356) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles. This is a known founder variant in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state and/or in conjunction with other SLC1A4 variant(s) in individual(s) with features consistent with SLC1A4-related spastic tetraplegia, thin corpus callosum, and progressive microcephaly and segregated with disease in at least one family (Damseh, 2015; Srour, 2015). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
