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.

Variant summary: ALMS1 c.3304C>G (p.Pro1102Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Alstrom syndrome repeat domain (IPR040972) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00057 in 248472 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ALMS1 causing Cardiomyopathy (0.00057 vs 0.0022), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3304C>G has been reported in the literature in the heterozygous state in at least one individual affected with Cardiomyopathy who also carried a rare missense variant in ALPK3 (e.g. Burstein_2021) . These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32746448). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 459864). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

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

The p.Pro1104Ala variant in ALMS1 is classified as benign because it has been identified in 1.1% (121/10324) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BA1.

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This 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.
