Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Aug 23, 2017	p.Lys2530Lys in exon 34 of CHD7: This variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue, is not located within the splice consensus sequence, and has been identified in 1.54% (143/9280) of African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs61742801). -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Apr 25, 2016	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. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Feb 27, 2024	Variant summary: CHD7 c.7590A>G alters a conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0012 in 200010 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.015 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 300 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CHD7 causing CHARGE Syndrome phenotype (4.4e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 158318). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
