Variant summary: The CHD7 c.2436A>T (p.Lys812Asn) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 15/29850 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.004964 (15/3022). This frequency is about 113 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CHD7 variant (0.0000438), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of African origin. This variant has been reported in one CHARGE syndrome patient without strong evidence for causality (Janssen_HM_2012), and it has been classified as benign by multiple publications (Bergman_HM_2012, Janssen_HM_2012). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as likely benign and one lab classified it as uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

CHD7 NM_017780 exon 6 p.Lys812Asn (c.2436A>T):This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.3% (59/19166) of African alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs61978638). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:198223). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

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

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -

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

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases was too high to be consistent with this variant causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -
