Description
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 535 of the GBA protein (p.Arg535His). This variant is present in population databases (rs75822236, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dementia with Lewy bodies, Gaucher disease, and/or Parkinson's disease (PMID: 8432537, 12972024, 23430543, 23588557, 23699752, 25933391, 27735925). This variant is also known as p.Arg496His or R496H. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4311). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GBA protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GBA function (PMID: 16293621). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
