Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1626C>A (p.N542K) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 11) of the MYLK2 gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1626, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 542 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID#580295; Landrum et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function -

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 1 Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 542 of the MYLK2 protein (p.Asn542Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs368444888, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MYLK2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 580295). 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 MYLK2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
