Description
The NTHL1 p.I58T variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs1805378) and in ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Molecular Oncology Laboratory, Hospital Clínico San Carlos for Familial adenomatous polyposis 3). The variant was also identified in control databases in 500 of 277380 chromosomes (1 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.001803 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: Ashkenazi Jewish in 56 of 10282 chromosomes (freq: 0.005446), Latino in 107 of 35394 chromosomes (freq: 0.003023), Other in 17 of 7160 chromosomes (freq: 0.002374), European (non-Finnish) in 279 of 127442 chromosomes (freq: 0.002189), South Asian in 23 of 30596 chromosomes (freq: 0.000752), European (Finnish) in 9 of 21854 chromosomes (freq: 0.000412), African in 7 of 24764 chromosomes (freq: 0.000283), and East Asian in 2 of 19888 chromosomes (freq: 0.000101). The p.Ile58 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign.
