Genes affected

NCSTN (HGNC:17091): (nicastrin) This gene encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is an integral component of the multimeric gamma-secretase complex. The encoded protein cleaves integral membrane proteins, including Notch receptors and beta-amyloid precursor protein, and may be a stabilizing cofactor required for gamma-secretase complex assembly. The cleavage of beta-amyloid precursor protein yields amyloid beta peptide, the main component of the neuritic plaque and the hallmark lesion in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease; however, the nature of the encoded protein's role in Alzheimer's disease is not known for certain. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial acne inversa. A pseudogene of this gene is present on chromosome 21. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

COPA (HGNC:2230): (COPI coat complex subunit alpha) In eukaryotic cells, protein transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi compartments is mediated in part by non-clathrin-coated vesicular coat proteins (COPs). Seven coat proteins have been identified, and they represent subunits of a complex known as coatomer. The subunits are designated alpha-COP, beta-COP, beta-prime-COP, gamma-COP, delta-COP, epsilon-COP, and zeta-COP. The alpha-COP, encoded by COPA, shares high sequence similarity with RET1P, the alpha subunit of the coatomer complex in yeast. Also, the N-terminal 25 amino acids of alpha-COP encode the bioactive peptide, xenin, which stimulates exocrine pancreatic secretion and may act as a gastrointestinal hormone. Alternative splicing results in multiple splice forms encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -15 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.63).
• BP6: Variant 1-160343457-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-160343457-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 1566588.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.371 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000158 (23/1458914) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.000258 (22/85424). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000174. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 13 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome at 9 AD gene.
