Genes affected
A2ML1 (HGNC:23336): (alpha-2-macroglobulin like 1) This gene encodes a member of the alpha-macroglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is thought to be an N-glycosylated monomeric protein that acts as an inhibitor of several proteases. It has been shown to form covalent interactions with proteases, and has been reported as the p170 antigen recognized by autoantibodies in the autoimmune disease paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP; PMID:20805888). Mutations in these gene have also been associated with some cases of Noonan syndrome (NS; PMID:24939586) as well as some cases of otitis media (PMID:26121085). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

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

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Variant summary: The A2ML1 c.2868C>T (p.Ala956Ala) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. Mutation taster predicts a polymorphism outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may affect binding of multiple ESE sites. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 4589/120498 control chromosomes (135 homozygotes) at a frequency of 0.0380836, which is approximately 9521 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic A2ML1 variant (0.000004), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories (via ClinVar) have classified this variant as benign. It has also been reported as a non-pathogenic variant in literature (Vissers_2015). Taken together, this variant is classified as benign.
