Description

Variant summary: WDR42A c.959+4A>C alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: One predicts the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site and three predict it weakens a 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 29744 control chromosomes (gnomAD v3.1.2). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.959+4A>C in individuals affected with Giant Axonal Neuropathy 2 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
