Description

This sequence change replaces glycine with serine at codon 76 of the AGRN protein (p.Gly76Ser). The glycine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glycine and serine. This variant is present in population databases (rs756623659, ExAC 0.002%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with congenital myasthenic syndrome (PMID: 24951643). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 243036). Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects AGRN protein function (PMID: 24951643). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
