Genes affected

NPC2 (HGNC:14537): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 2) This gene encodes a protein containing a lipid recognition domain. The encoded protein may function in regulating the transport of cholesterol through the late endosomal/lysosomal system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Niemann-Pick disease, type C2 and frontal lobe atrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.85).
• BP6: Variant 14-74480296-T-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr14-74480296-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 1155067.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
