Genes affected
LIMS2 (HGNC:16084): (LIM zinc finger domain containing 2) This gene encodes a member of a small family of focal adhesion proteins which interacts with ILK (integrin-linked kinase), a protein which effects protein-protein interactions with the extraceullar matrix. The encoded protein has five LIM domains, each domain forming two zinc fingers, which permit interactions which regulate cell shape and migration. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 4. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011]

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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LIMS2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 574732). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LIMS2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs757640443, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 108 of the LIMS2 protein (p.Arg108Cys). -

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

The c.328C>T (p.R110C) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the LIMS2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 328, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 110 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
