Interpretation of genetic variants of uncertain significance in atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in complement proteins predispose to atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Mutation screening in aHUS is challenging, because most of the disease-associated mutations are individually rare, and a significant proportion of variants consist of missense mutations of unknown significance. The definitive interpretation of a variant of unknown significance (VUS) is often dependent on a reliable...
