Epilepsy, familial focal, with variable foci 3 Uncertain:2Other:1
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. This sequence change falls in intron 4 of the NPRL3 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NPRL3 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs746765533, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NPRL3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 574218). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. -
The inherited heterozygous splice region variant c.318+3A>T has not been reported in the literature in individuals with NPRL3-related disease. The variant affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron 4 and is absent in the gnomAD v3.1.1 database, indicating a rare allele. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID:17576681; PMID:9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Still, this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Based on the available evidence, the inherited variant c.318+3A>T in the NPRL3 gene is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
This participant was tested at multiple clinical laboratories and the variant was classified as Uncertain significance at both laboratories. Variant most recently reported on 05-24-2021 by New York Genome Center and 02-23-2021 by Sema4. Assertions are reported exactly as they appear on the patient provided laboratory report. GenomeConnect does not attempt to reinterpret the variant. The IDDRC-CTSA National Brain Gene Registry (BGR) is a study funded by the U.S. National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and includes 13 Intellectual and Developmental Disability Research Center (IDDRC) institutions. The study is led by Principal Investigator Dr. Philip Payne from Washington University. The BGR is a data commons of gene variants paired with subject clinical information. This database helps scientists learn more about genetic changes and their impact on the brain and behavior. Participation in the Brain Gene Registry requires participation in GenomeConnect.
