Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1 PM2

The NM_001378454.1(ALMS1):​c.111_114delGGACinsTGA​(p.Asp38GlufsTer3) variant causes a frameshift, synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V37V) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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.

ALMS1 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• Alstrom syndrome

  Inheritance: AR, Unknown Classification: DEFINITIVE, STRONG, SUPPORTIVE Submitted by: G2P, Genomics England PanelApp, Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), ClinGen, Orphanet

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
