Genes affected
SMPD1 (HGNC:11120): (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. The encoded protein also has phospholipase C activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA) and Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 26, 2022This variant, c.132_143dup, results in the insertion of 4 amino acid(s) of the SMPD1 protein (p.Ala46_Leu49dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with SMPD1-related conditions (PMID: 33675270). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 992676). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 30, 2024Variant summary: SMPD1 c.132_143dup12 (p.Ala46_Leu49dup) results in an in-frame duplication that is predicted to insert four amino acids into the (putative) signal peptide region (Rhein_2014) of the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 146056 control chromosomes (gnomAD v3.1). However, it is located in a polymorphic region where it is in overlap with other frequent in-frame deletion-insertion variants. c.132_143dup12 has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype in an individual affected with Niemann-Pick Disease (Hu_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Niemann-Pick Disease. A functional study analyzed the effect of variable numbers of Leu-Ala (LA) repeats in the signal peptide region, and found that variants encoding 2, 8 or 9 repeats resulted in significantly lowered ASM secretion rates compared to the wild-type with 6 LA-repeat (Rhein_2014). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33675270, 27814975, 25301364). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 992676). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
