Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_033409.4(SLC52A3):c.796C>T(p.Arg266Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000415 in 1,614,044 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R266Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Brown-Vialetto-van Laere syndrome 1 Uncertain:1Other:1
- -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 266 of the SLC52A3 protein (p.Arg266Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs370499474, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome 1 (PMID: 22824638). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 210020). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
The p.R266W variant (also known as c.796C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the SLC52A3 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 796. The arginine at codon 266 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been detected in trans with another SLC52A3 variant in an individual with overlapping features of Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome 1 (BVVLS1) and Fazio-Londe disease (Ciccolella M et al. Neuromuscul Disord, 2012 Dec;22:1075-82). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and tryptophan is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
The R266W variant in the SLC52A3 gene has been reported previously in association with autosomal recessive Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome 1 (Ciccolella et al., 2012). has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is observed in 5/126660 (0.0039%) alleles from individuals of non-Finnish European background in large population cohorts, with no homozygotes identified (Lek et al., 2016). The R266W variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function.We interpret R266W as a variant of uncertain significance. -
