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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

PM1
In a chain NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 2 (size 131) in uniprot entity NPC2_HUMAN there are 18 pathogenic changes around while only 4 benign (82%) in NM_006432.5
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.3177959).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000219 (32/1461848) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000358 (16/44724). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000224. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 17 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Niemann-Pick disease, type C2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 01, 2022This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 118 of the NPC2 protein (p.Glu118Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358266, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NPC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 594094). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
