Genes affected

COMT (HGNC:2228): (catechol-O-methyltransferase) Catechol-O-methyltransferase catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to catecholamines, including the neurotransmitters dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. This O-methylation results in one of the major degradative pathways of the catecholamine transmitters. In addition to its role in the metabolism of endogenous substances, COMT is important in the metabolism of catechol drugs used in the treatment of hypertension, asthma, and Parkinson disease. COMT is found in two forms in tissues, a soluble form (S-COMT) and a membrane-bound form (MB-COMT). The differences between S-COMT and MB-COMT reside within the N-termini. Several transcript variants are formed through the use of alternative translation initiation sites and promoters. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points.

• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0102 (1550/151852) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0345 (1427/41372). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.033. There are 15 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 736 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 0. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd4 at 1550 AD gene.
