Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM5PP3PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000784.4(CYP27A1):c.1537C>T(p.Arg513Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000248 in 1,614,166 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R513H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 513 of the CYP27A1 protein (p.Arg513Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs560108684, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of CYP27A1-related conditions (PMID: 28623566, 31743419, 32714376, 34012265). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557779). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CYP27A1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg513 amino acid residue in CYP27A1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with CYP27A1-related conditions (PMID: 22878431), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Variant summary: CYP27A1 c.1537C>T (p.Arg513Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251486 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in CYP27A1 causing Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (5.2e-05 vs 0.0011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1537C>T has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in individuals affected with Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis, including two individuals from a single family (Chen_2017, Jiang_2020, Zhang_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v4.0.0 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense variant In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.66 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.29 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. The same nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with CYP27A1 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000557779 /PMID: 28623566).The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least one similarly affected unrelated individual (PMID: 32714376). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Arg513His) has been reported to be associated with CYP27A1 related disorder (PMID: 22878431). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22878431, 32714376, 28623566, 31743419)
CYP27A1-related disorder Uncertain:1
The CYP27A1 c.1537C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg513Cys. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in individuals with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (Chen et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28623566; Jiang et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32714376). This variant is reported in 0.029% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant has interpretations ranging from uncertain significance to pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/557779/). Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
