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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 03, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1944 of the ALMS1 protein (p.Arg1944Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs370398704, gnomAD 0.08%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALMS1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 393252). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 25, 2019In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported in ClinVar but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 393252; Landrum et al., 2016) -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 09, 2021The p.R1944C variant (also known as c.5830C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the ALMS1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5830. The arginine at codon 1944 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
