Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | May 03, 2023 | Identified in a patient with HCM in published literature (Chung et al., 2021); this patient also harbored additional cardiogenetic variants; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33658040) - |
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Oct 18, 2024 | The p.R256Q variant (also known as c.767G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the NEXN gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 767. The arginine at codon 256 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) cohort, but clinical details were limited (Chung H et al. J Cardiovasc Magn Reson, 2021 Mar;23:18). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. - |
Dilated cardiomyopathy 1CC;C3151267:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 20 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Aug 28, 2021 | This sequence change replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 256 of the NEXN protein (p.Arg256Gln). The arginine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and glutamine. This variant is present in population databases (rs748921688, ExAC 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEXN-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. - |
