Hereditary pancreatitis Uncertain:4
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. -
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 18 of the CTRC protein (p.Gly18Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs200576965, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatitis (PMID: 22942235, 25251442). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 582232). 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 CTRC protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on CTRC function (PMID: 22942235). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
The CTRC c.52G>A; p.Gly18Arg variant (rs200576965) is reported in the literature in several heterozygous individuals affected with pancreatitis (Ballard 2015, Beer 2013). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 582232) and is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.011% (14/124118 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.852). Functional analyses of the variant protein show no change to protein levels or activity compared to wildtype under normal conditions, but reduced activity in the presence of trypsin (Beer 2013). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Gly18Arg variant is uncertain at this time. References: Ballard DD et al.

The p.G18R variant (also known as c.52G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the CTRC gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 52. The glycine at codon 18 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. In HEK293 cells, this variant demonstrated similar enzyme kinetics to wild type, but showed approximately 20% loss in activity in the presence of trypsin (Beer S et al. Gut, 2013 Nov;62:1616-24). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
