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.

Variant summary: ALMS1 c.100_105dupGCGGCG/p.Ala34_Ala35dup (c.103_108dupGCGGCG/p.Ala35_Ala36dup) results in an in-frame duplication that is predicted to duplicate 2 amino acids into the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00051 in 139126 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0024 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is slightly higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ALMS1 causing Alstrom Syndrome With Dilated Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.0018), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Latino origin. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (likely benign n=2, VUS n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
