Genes affected
COL6A2 (HGNC:2212): (collagen type VI alpha 2 chain) This gene encodes one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The product of this gene contains several domains similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in this gene are associated with Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy. Three transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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

The c.1666G>A (p.E556K) alteration is located in exon 21 (coding exon 20) of the COL6A2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1666, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 556 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

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

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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt COL6A2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 476456). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with COL6A2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs368878639, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 556 of the COL6A2 protein (p.Glu556Lys). -
