Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 28, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala181Profs*130) in the ALPK3 gene. It is unclear whether it will result in an absent or disrupted protein product because an in-frame methionine located at codon 203 has the potential to rescue this truncating variant. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.06%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ALPK3-related conditions (PMID: 32480058). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1487747). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 28, 2023The c.541delG variant, located in coding exon 1 of the ALPK3 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 541, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.A181Pfs*130). This variant was reported in one individual with dilated cardiomyopathy, who had a second ALPK3 variant also detected; however, phase information was not provided (Herkert JC et al. Am Heart J, 2020 07;225:108-119). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, based on data from gnomAD, several loss of function alterations in the first exon of ALPK3 (p.C64* and p.E148Qfs*8) are too frequent to cause disease given the incidence of pediatric cardiomyopathy. The abundance of nonsense and frameshift alleles in the first exon in population databases brings into question the pathogenicity of loss of function alterations in N-terminus of ALPK3 and suggests the possibility of an alternative start site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
