Description

This sequence change replaces tryptophan with serine at codon 155 of the FLNA protein (p.Trp155Ser). The tryptophan residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between tryptophan and serine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FLNA-related conditions. 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: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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.
