Genes affected
NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points.

PM1
In a topological_domain Cytoplasmic (size 48) in uniprot entity NPC1_HUMAN there are 5 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (83%) in NM_000271.5
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0067704916).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000414 (63/152314) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.00203 (31/15288). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00147. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 28 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.

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

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
