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.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2237 of the ALMS1 protein (p.Pro2237Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs201737248, gnomAD 0.002%). 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: 459880). 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Pro2237Leu (also referred to as p.Pro2235Leu) variant in the ALMS1 gene has not been previously reported in association with disease. This variant has been identified in 4/127,976 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Computational tools predict that the p.Pro2237Leu variant does not impact protein function; however, the accuracy of in silico algorithms is limited. These data were assessed using the ACMG/AMP variant interpretation guidelines. In summary, the significance of the p.Pro2237Leu variant is uncertain. Additional information is needed to resolve the significance of this variant. [ACMG evidence codes used: PM2; BP4] -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:provider interpretation

This variant was identified in a heterozygous state in a patient with familial cardiomyopathy. SCICD Classification: Variant of uncertain significance based on lack of case data, poor genotype-phenotype match, only a heterozygous variant in a gene that causes autosomal recessive disease, and rarity in the general population. We do not feel it is suitable for assessing risk in healthy relatives ("predictive genetic testing"). Gene-level evidence: The ALMS1 gene is associated with autosomal RECESSIVE Alström syndrome. Alström syndrome includes cone-rod dystrophy, obesity, progressive sensorineural hearing impairment, dilated or restrictive cardiomyopathy, the insulin resistance syndrome, and multiple organ failure. There are 134 variant submissions for ALMS1 in ClinVar and 15 submissions specifically for cardiomyopathy. Five of these submissions are missense variants and considered “pathogenic” or “likely pathogenic.” Unfortunately, the submitters did not include supporting evidence or whether or not these variants were seen in the homozygous, heterozygous or compound heterozygous form. Therefore, evaluating the pathogenicity of heterozygous missense variants in ALMS1 as causative of cardiomyopathy is not possible. According to ExAC, ALMS1 is tolerant of both synonymous (z= -2.46) and missense (z= -6.40) change, while it is intolerant to loss-of-function change (pLI= 0.00). This observation agrees with available case data: published cases of Alström syndrome are caused by a loss-of-function of both copies of the ALMS1 gene. Case data (not including our patient): none ClinVar: not present Cases in the literature: none reported Segregation data: none reported Functional data: none reported In silico data (missense variants only): Per the test report, "Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change" Conservation data: The proline at codon 2237 is highly conserved across species. Population data: Highest MAF in European NF population: 0.002382%. The variant was reported online in 3 of 138082 individuals in the Genome Aggregation Consortium Dataset (gnomAD; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/), which currently includes variant calls on >140,000 unrelated individuals of African, Asian, European, Ashkenazi, Latino descent. Specifically, the variant was observed in 3 of 62976 individuals of European NF descent (0.002382%.). The phenotype of those individuals is not publicly available. The dataset is comprised of multiple cohorts, some of which were recruited from the general population, others were enriched for common cardiovascular disease. Note that other variants with strong evidence for pathogenicity have been seen at similar frequencies in datasets like this so this does not necessarily rule out pathogenicity (Pan et al 2012). -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.P2237L variant (also known as c.6710C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the ALMS1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 6710. The proline at codon 2237 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well 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. -
