Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000203.5:c.299+6C>T variant in IDUA alters a nucleotide in the region of the donor splice site of intron 2. The filtering allele frequency (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 14986/1566936) of the c.299+6C>T variant in IDUA is 0.02373 in the Middle Eastern population chromosomes by gnomAD v4.1.0., which is higher than the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92640). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for mucopolysaccharidosis type I. IDUA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LD VCEP (Specifications Version 1.0.0.): BA1(Classification approved by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert Panel on April 21, 2025).

Genes affected
SLC26A1 (HGNC:10993): (solute carrier family 26 member 1) This gene is a member of a family of sulfate/anion transporter genes. Family members are well conserved in their genomic (number and size of exons) and protein (aa length among species) structures, but have markedly different tissue expression patterns. This gene is primarily expressed in the liver, pancreas, and brain. Three splice variants that encode different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
IDUA (HGNC:5391): (alpha-L-iduronidase) This gene encodes an enzyme that hydrolyzes the terminal alpha-L-iduronic acid residues of two glycosaminoglycans, dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. This hydrolysis is required for the lysosomal degradation of these glycosaminoglycans. Mutations in this gene that result in enzymatic deficiency lead to the autosomal recessive disease mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: IDUA c.299+6C>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.01 in 172956 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 20 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 4 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in IDUA causing Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 1 phenotype (0.0027), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

The NM_000203.5:c.299+6C>T variant in IDUA alters a nucleotide in the region of the donor splice site of intron 2. The filtering allele frequency (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 14986/1566936) of the c.299+6C>T variant in IDUA is 0.02373 in the Middle Eastern population chromosomes by gnomAD v4.1.0., which is higher than the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92640). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for mucopolysaccharidosis type I.
