Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000489778 SCV007369697 uncertain significance not provided 2025-10-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 19 of the TWNK protein (p.Gly19Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs767175342, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TWNK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 426493). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TWNK protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
Athena Diagnostics RCV000489778 SCV004229834 uncertain significance not provided 2022-11-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational tools predict that this variant is not damaging.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001107309 SCV001264450 likely benign Progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions, autosomal dominant 3 2018-01-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001107308 SCV001264449 uncertain significance Autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia 2018-01-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

GeneDx RCV000489778 SCV000576948 uncertain significance not provided 2017-12-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The G19E variant in the C10orf2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The G19E variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The G19E variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved, and in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. We interpret G19E as a variant of uncertain significance.
