Genes affected
APOC2 (HGNC:609): (apolipoprotein C2) This gene encodes a lipid-binding protein belonging to the apolipoprotein gene family. The protein is secreted in plasma where it is a component of very low density lipoprotein. This protein activates the enzyme lipoprotein lipase, which hydrolyzes triglycerides and thus provides free fatty acids for cells. Mutations in this gene cause hyperlipoproteinemia type IB, characterized by hypertriglyceridemia, xanthomas, and increased risk of pancreatitis and early atherosclerosis. This gene is present in a cluster with other related apolipoprotein genes on chromosome 19. Naturally occurring read-through transcription exists between this gene and the neighboring upstream apolipoprotein C-IV (APOC4) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 4 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 19-44948500-GCT-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-44948500-GCT-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2992672.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMay 26, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu9Valfs*10) in the APOC2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in APOC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1569385, 1971748, 26772541). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APOC2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs755352904, gnomAD 0.0009%). -
