Description

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. This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 53 of the HEXA protein (p.Ala53Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HEXA-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1490873). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0").
