Description
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 347 of the KLF11 protein (p.Ala347Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs121912645, gnomAD 0.05%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KLF11-related conditions (PMID: 15774581, 29758564, 35108381). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6498). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KLF11 function (PMID: 15774581, 23589285, 31124255). 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.
