Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 0P and 7B. BP4_ModerateBS1_SupportingBS2
The NM_033087.4(ALG2):c.1132C>T(p.Arg378Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000573 in 1,614,126 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts 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. R378H) has been classified as Likely benign.

ALG2-congenital disorder of glycosylation;C4015597:Congenital myasthenic syndrome 14    Uncertain:2 
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 378 of the ALG2 protein (p.Arg378Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs56393253, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALG2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265036). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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 c.1132C>T (p.R378C) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the ALG2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1132, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 378 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided    Uncertain:1 
Reported previously as a variant of uncertain significance identified with CDG molecular testing; however, no clinical information was provided (Jones et al., 2013); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23806237) -
ALG2-congenital disorder of glycosylation    Uncertain:1 
This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
