Genes affected

GFAP (HGNC:4235): (glial fibrillary acidic protein) This gene encodes one of the major intermediate filament proteins of mature astrocytes. It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development. Mutations in this gene cause Alexander disease, a rare disorder of astrocytes in the central nervous system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0000985 (15/152212) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000851 (13/15280).

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is present in population databases (rs773482099, gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 89 of the GFAP protein (p.Phe89Leu). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GFAP-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 585932). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.265T>C (p.F89L) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the GFAP gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 265, causing the phenylalanine (F) at amino acid position 89 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
