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 testingInvitaeNov 01, 2022This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 3593 of the ALMS1 protein (p.Thr3593Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs200467041, gnomAD 0.1%). 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: 449854). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Not Available"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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 testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 10, 2023Variant summary: ALMS1 c.10771A>G (p.Thr3591Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 248704 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0012 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is only slight lower than expected for a pathogenic variant in ALMS1 causing Alstrom Syndrome (0.0012 vs 0.0014), suggesting this variant may not associate with the disease. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.10771A>G in individuals affected with Alstrom Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (MYBPC3 c.1505G>A, p.Arg502Gln; TTN c.62134C>T, p.Gln20712X; MYBPC3 c.927-9G>A; internal testing), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, classifying the variant as likely benign (n=2) or uncertain significance (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 25, 2021This 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. -
