Genes affected
SLC17A5 (HGNC:10933): (solute carrier family 17 member 5) This gene encodes a membrane transporter that exports free sialic acids that have been cleaved off of cell surface lipids and proteins from lysosomes. Mutations in this gene cause sialic acid storage diseases, including infantile sialic acid storage disorder and and Salla disease, an adult form. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu170*) in the SLC17A5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC17A5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10581036, 10947946, 15172001). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833992, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with SLC17A5-related conditions (PMID: 12592494, 16715535, 28662915). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56556). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: SLC17A5 c.507delA (p.Leu170X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 250998 control chromosomes. c.507delA has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Sialic Acid Storage Disorder (Aula_2006). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
