p. ala39ser represents: alanine (Ala, a) at position 39 was changed to a polar uncharged serine (Ser, S).
The mutation was found to be a rare mutation by querying the population frequency database (thousand genomes: none, ESP 6500: none, ExAC: none). The amino acid changes from a nonpolar alanine (Ala, A) to a polar uncharged serine (Ser, S). The database was queried to find that the amino acid at this position was well conserved in vertebrates. The Clinvar and HGMD databases are queried to find the mutation, but different mutations p.Ala39Asp at the same site and mutations p.Leu32Pro, p.Asp38Gly, p.Asp38Asp, p.Asp38Glu, p.Val40Ile, c.142_143delgtins TCp. (Val48Ser) and the like near the site have been reported as pathogenic mutations of amyloidosis (Clinvar and HGMD databases), and the Interpro database is queried to find that the site is located in Transthyretin, thyrooxydingsite, Transthyretin/hydroxyisorate hydrosome, superfamily functional region. The literature search does not find the variation and the disease related report. According to the existing evidence: such variations are rare variations, amino acids at this position are well conserved in vertebrates, may be located in important functional domains of proteins, amino acid changes may have an effect on protein function, different variations at the same site have been reported as pathogenic variations, and are presumed to be highly suspected pathogenic mutations of myocardial amyloidosis.

As shown in fig. 1-3, proband carries the mutated TTR gene, and both proband girls and proband children carry the mutated TTR gene. Proband carries the mutated TTR gene inherited from proband father.

And obtaining a reference sequence from an NCBI (https:// www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov /) database, comparing the reference sequence with a sequencing result, judging whether the TTR gene of the testee carries the c.115-116 delGCinsAG heterozygous missense variation, and assisting the clinical confirmation of whether the testee has the patient with the c.115-116 delGCinsAG TTR gene mutation.
