2-73385903-TGGAGGAGGAGGAGGAGGAGGAGGAGGA-TGGAGGAGGA

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BP3BP6BS1BS2

The NM_001378454.1(ALMS1):​c.57_74delGGAGGAGGAGGAGGAGGA​(p.Glu20_Glu25del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00131 in 701,364 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E19del) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected
ALMS1 (HGNC:428): (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) This gene encodes a protein containing a large tandem-repeat domain as well as additional low complexity regions. The encoded protein functions in microtubule organization, particularly in the formation and maintanance of cilia. Mutations in this gene cause Alstrom syndrome. There is a pseudogene for this gene located adjacent in the same region of chromosome 2. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.
