Genes affected
CYP27A1 (HGNC:2605): (cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1) This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This mitochondrial protein oxidizes cholesterol intermediates as part of the bile synthesis pathway. Since the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids is the major route for removing cholesterol from the body, this protein is important for overall cholesterol homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a rare autosomal recessive lipid storage disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 02, 2024Variant summary: CYP27A1 c.1263+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing and loss of CYP27A1 function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing (Maddirevula_2020). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251476 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1263+1G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (e.g. Khan_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32552793, 26622071). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4262). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Nov 01, 2021NM_000784.3(CYP27A1):c.1263+1G>A is a canonical splice variant classified as pathogenic in the context of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis. c.1263+1G>A has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 33313117, 22878431). Functional assessments of this variant are available in the literature (PMID: 8827518). c.1263+1G>A has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: NFE 0.01%). In summary, NM_000784.3(CYP27A1):c.1263+1G>A is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 26, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 7 of the CYP27A1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs397515355, gnomAD 0.005%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (PMID: 8827518, 26622071, 27878435). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4262). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 7 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 8827518). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

CYP27A1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 20, 2024The CYP27A1 c.1263+1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant was reported in a homozygous state in several patient affected by cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) (Garuti et al. 1996 PubMed ID: 8827518, Table S1, Maddirevula et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32552793). Of note, substitutions of the same splice site, c.1263+1G>T and c.1263+5G>T, have been reported in CTX affected patients (Chang et al. 2022 PubMed ID: 36312475, Garuti et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9392430). This variant is reported in 0.0050% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in CYP27A1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
