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]

This variant causes a T to A nucleotide substitution at the -12 position of intron 13 of the ATP7B gene. A functional RNA study has shown that this variant causes in-frame skipping of exon 14 (PMID: 12325021), resulting in loss of portions of the ATP nucleotide binding domain (a.a. 1032 - 1196) and phosphorylation domains (a.a. 1004 - 1031; a.a. 1197 - 1306) that are important for ATP7B protein function (PMID: 35245129; ClinVar). This variant has been observed in individuals affected with autosomal recessive Wilson disease (PMID: 12325021, 22687675, 23567103, 32043565, 33159804, 34400371, 35169583), including in one individual in the homozygous state (PMID: 22687675) and in multiple individuals in the compound heterozygous state with another pathogenic variant in ATP7B (PMID: 23567103, 32043565, 33159804, 35169583). This variant has been identified in 1/245682 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 Pathogenic. -

This sequence change falls in intron 13 of the ATP7B gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ATP7B protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Wilson disease (PMID: 12325021, 22687675, 23567103). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557116). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 14, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 12325021). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: ATP7B c.3061-12T>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes a canonical 3' acceptor site. Two predict the variant weakens a canonical 3' acceptor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing (Loudianos_2002). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 245682 control chromosomes. c.3061-12T>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Wilson Disease (example, Loudianos_2012, Silva_2011, Bost_2012, Dufernez_2013, Sanchez-Monteagudo_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Two 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. One submitter has cited overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
