Genes affected
APOA5 (HGNC:17288): (apolipoprotein A5) The protein encoded by this gene is an apolipoprotein that plays an important role in regulating the plasma triglyceride levels, a major risk factor for coronary artery disease. It is a component of high density lipoprotein and is highly similar to a rat protein that is upregulated in response to liver injury. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hypertriglyceridemia and hyperlipoproteinemia type 5. This gene is located proximal to the apolipoprotein gene cluster on chromosome 11q23. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Variant summary: The APOA5 c.111C>A (p.Asp37Glu) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 377/95056 control chromosomes (7 homozygotes) including ExAC, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.042891 (330/7694). This frequency is about 643 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic APOA5 variant (0.0000667), thus this is a polymorphism found primarily in the populations of African origin. A case-control study indicates that the variants prevalence is increased in myocardial infarction cases than in controls (Do_2015). No further studies are found to replicate this finding. Taken together, this variant is currently classified as likely benign.

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Feb 05, 2021
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
