Description

The MERTK c.2165G>A; p.Arg722Gln variant (rs147779020), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature or gene-specific databases. This variant is found on only four chromosomes (4/282854 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at codon 722 is highly conserved, it occurs close to the catalytic site of the MERTK kinase domain (Huang 2009), and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. However, given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Arg722Gln variant is uncertain at this time. References: Huang X et al. Structural insights into the inhibited states of the Mer receptor tyrosine kinase. J Struct Biol. 2009 Feb;165(2):88-96.
