Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BP4_Strong
The NM_001130965.3(SUN1):c.992G>A(p.Arg331Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 1,614,084 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. R331W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not specified    Uncertain:1 
The c.992G>A (p.R331Q) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 9) of the SUN1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 992, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 331 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 331 of the SUN1 protein (p.Arg331Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs374902623, gnomAD 0.08%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SUN1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569233). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The glutamine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
