Summary:[...]there is a ‘donor’ sequence for these cis-linked variants in another closely linked PRSS1 pseudogene, TRY7 (trypsinogen D; https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=try7) (figure 1B). [...]allelic ratios of p.Ala16Val in these examples are all <25%, significantly lower than the 50% that would be expected for a genuine heterozygous variant. [...]we performed a meta-analysis of studies that (1) analysed p.Ala16Val in both patients and controls and (2) detected the variant at least once by means of Sanger sequencing or other conventional mutation screening methods using PRSS1-specific primers.
