Genes affected

BFSP1 (HGNC:1040): (beaded filament structural protein 1) This gene encodes a lens-specific intermediate filament-like protein named filensin. The encoded protein is expressed in lens fiber cells after differentiation has begun. This protein functions as a component of the beaded filament which is a cytoskeletal structure found in lens fiber cells. Mutations in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive cortical juvenile-onset cataract. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1468A>G (p.T490A) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 8) of the BFSP1 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1468, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 490 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BFSP1-related conditions. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant is present in population databases (rs756439203, ExAC 0.001%). This sequence change replaces threonine with alanine at codon 490 of the BFSP1 protein (p.Thr490Ala). The threonine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between threonine and alanine. -
