Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
The p.E438G variant (also known as c.1313A>G), located in coding exon 12 of the FIG4 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1313. The glutamic acid at codon 438 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Uncertain:1
This variant is present in population databases (rs535554973, ExAC 0.02%). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with glycine at codon 438 of the FIG4 protein (p.Glu438Gly). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and glycine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FIG4-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. -
