Genes affected
ACE (HGNC:2707): (angiotensin I converting enzyme) This gene encodes an enzyme involved in blood pressure regulation and electrolyte balance. It catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I into a physiologically active peptide angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a potent vasopressor and aldosterone-stimulating peptide that controls blood pressure and fluid-electrolyte balance. This angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) also inactivates the vasodilator protein, bradykinin. Accordingly, the encoded enzyme increases blood pressure and is a drug target of ACE inhibitors, which are often prescribed to reduce blood pressure. This enzyme additionally plays a role in fertility through its ability to cleave and release GPI-anchored membrane proteins in spermatozoa. Many studies have associated the presence or absence of a 287 bp Alu repeat element in this gene with the levels of circulating enzyme. This polymorphism, as well as mutations in this gene, have been implicated in a wide variety of diseases including cardiovascular pathophysiologies, psoriasis, renal disease, stroke, and Alzheimer's disease. Regulation of the homologous ACE2 gene may be involved in progression of disease caused by several human coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding both somatic (sACE) and male-specific testicular (tACE) isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2020]

Renal tubular dysgenesis Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineSep 24, 2014The Ser5AlafsX31 variant in ACE has not been previously reported in individuals with renal tubular dysgenesis and data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of this variant. This frameshift variant is predicted to alter the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 5 and lead to a premature termination codon 31 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function variants in exon 1 of the ACE gene - encoding the signal peptide - have been associated with renal tubular dysgenesis in homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals (Gribouval 2012). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic (http://pcpgm.partners.org/LMM). -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 28, 2018The c.12_31del20 variant in the ACE gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The c.12_31del20 variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Serine 5, changes this amino acid to an Alanine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 31 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Ser5AlafsX31. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.12_31del20 variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret c.12_31del20 as a likely pathogenic variant. -
