Genes affected
ATP7B (HGNC:870): (ATPase copper transporting beta) This gene is a member of the P-type cation transport ATPase family and encodes a protein with several membrane-spanning domains, an ATPase consensus sequence, a hinge domain, a phosphorylation site, and at least 2 putative copper-binding sites. This protein is a monomer, and functions as a copper-transporting ATPase which exports copper out of the cells, such as the efflux of hepatic copper into the bile. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms with distinct cellular localizations, have been characterized. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Wilson disease which is characterized by copper accumulation. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2019]

NM_000053.3(ATP7B):c.3556+1G>A is a canonical splice variant classified as pathogenic in the context of Wilson disease. c.3556+1G>A has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 26799313, 7626145). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. c.3556+1G>A has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: EAS 0.01%). In summary, NM_000053.3(ATP7B):c.3556+1G>A is a canonical splice variant that has internal structural support for pathogenicity and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The ATP7B c.3556+1G>A variant (rs184388696), also published as 3559+1G>A, is reported in the literature in individuals affected with Wilson disease, several of whom are reported with a second pathogenic variant (Hou 2022, Ljubic 2016, Thomas 1995, Zhang 2022). This variant is only observed on two alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical splice donor site of intron 16, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 16 of the ATP7B gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been observed in individuals affected with autosomal recessive Wilson Disease (PMID: 7626145, 26799313, 35444691), including in one individual in the compound heterozygous state with another pathogenic variant in the ATP7B gene (PMID: 26799313). This variant has been identified in 2/249588 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of ATP7B function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: ATP7B c.3556+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 249588 control chromosomes. c.3556+1G>A has been reported in the literature in two unrelated individuals affected with Wilson Disease (Thomas 1995, Ljubic 2016). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 16 of the ATP7B gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ATP7B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10441329, 16283883). This variant is present in population databases (rs184388696, gnomAD 0.006%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Wilson disease (PMID: 7626145, 26799313; internal data). This variant is also known as c.3559+1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189055). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.3556+1G>A variant in ATP7B has been previously reported in at least 2 individuals with Wilson disease, including one who was compound heterozygous with the p.Arg969Gln variant (Ljubic 2016, Thomas 1995, Thomas 1995). This variant is present in 0.005% (1/17978) of East Asian and 0.0008% (1/113294) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant occurs within the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Loss of function of the ATP7B gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive Wilson disease. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive Wilson disease.
