Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PM1PM2PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000053.4(ATP7B):c.3971A>G(p.Asn1324Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,892 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N1324T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

The missense c.3971A>G p.Asn1324Ser variant in the ATP7B gene which is in the mutational hotspot has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. Another missense variant at this position has been reported previously in association with Wilson disease Zarina, Agnese et al.,2017. This variant is reported with the allele frequency 0.0004% in the gnomAD Exomes . It is submitted to ClinVar as Likely Pathogenic. The amino acid Asparagine at position 1324 is changed to a Serine changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Multiple lines of computational evidence Polyphen - Damaging, SIFT – Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant.The amino acid Asparagine in ATP7B is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1324 of the ATP7B protein (p.Asn1324Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs760285767, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Wilson disease (PMID: 22677543, 32043565, 35220961). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1236173). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ATP7B protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Asn1324 amino acid residue in ATP7B. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with ATP7B-related conditions (PMID: 28717664), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 1324 of the ATP7B protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with Wilson disease in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/249578 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Variant summary: ATP7B c.3971A>G (p.Asn1324Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the P-type ATPase domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249578 control chromosomes. c.3971A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Wilson Disease (examples: Zhang_2022, Sanchez-Monteagudo_2020, Bost_2012). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35220961, 22677543, 32043565). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1236173). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
