Description
The p.A546V variant (also known as c.1637C>T), located in coding exon 13 of the COL5A1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1637. The alanine at codon 546 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. Based on data from ExAC, the T allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.003% (4/115096). The highest observed frequency was 0.03% (2/5792) of European (Finnish) alleles (Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://exac.broadinstitute.org) [Accessed January 20, 2016]). This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
