Description
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 479 of the ACVRL1 protein (p.Arg479Gln). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hemorrhagic telangiectasia (PMID: 16470787, 16705692, 21158752; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 426035). 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 ACVRL1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ACVRL1 function (PMID: 20501893). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
