Genes affected
ALPL (HGNC:438): (alkaline phosphatase, biomineralization associated) This gene encodes a member of the alkaline phosphatase family of proteins. There are at least four distinct but related alkaline phosphatases: intestinal, placental, placental-like, and liver/bone/kidney (tissue non-specific). The first three are located together on chromosome 2, while the tissue non-specific form is located on chromosome 1. The product of this gene is a membrane bound glycosylated enzyme that is not expressed in any particular tissue and is, therefore, referred to as the tissue-nonspecific form of the enzyme. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature enzyme. This enzyme may play a role in bone mineralization. Mutations in this gene have been linked to hypophosphatasia, a disorder that is characterized by hypercalcemia and skeletal defects.

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: ALPL c.422C>T (p.Thr141Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Alkaline phosphatase domain (IPR001952) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant was absent in 250596 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.422C>T has been reported in the literature in two individuals affected with Hypophosphatasia (example, DelAngel_2020). A GWAS study using UK Biobank participants suggest the variant was associated with phenotypes of abnormlal Alkaline phosphatase (Backman_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as likely pathogenic/pathogenic by our lab (c.422C>A, p.Thr141Asn), supporting the critical relevance of codon 141 to ALPL protein function. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in about 61% of normal activity in vitro (DelAngel_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34662886, 32160374). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1465466). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

ALPL c.422C>T is a missense variant that changes the amino acid at residue 141 from Threonine to Isoleucine. This variant has been observed in at least one proband affected with hypophosphatasia (PMID:32973344;32811521). Functional studies have been reported;however, the significance of the findings remain unclear (PMID:32160374). It is absent or not present at a significant frequency in gnomAD. In silico models agree that this variant is possibly or probably damaging. In conclusion, we classify ALPL p.Thr141Ile (c.422C>T) as a likely pathogenic variant.

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 141 of the ALPL protein (p.Thr141Ile). This variant disrupts the p.Thr141 amino acid residue in ALPL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with ALPL-related conditions (PMID: 25731960), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ALPL function (PMID: 32160374). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ALPL protein function. This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypophosphatasia (PMID: 32160374, 32811521). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
