Genes affected
GPIHBP1 (HGNC:24945): (glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchored high density lipoprotein binding protein 1) This gene encodes a capillary endothelial cell protein that facilitates the lipolytic processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. The encoded protein is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein that is a member of the lymphocyte antigen 6 (Ly6) family. This protein plays a major role in transporting lipoprotein lipase (LPL) from the subendothelial spaces to the capillary lumen. Mutations in this gene are the cause of hyperlipoproteinemia, type 1D. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]

NM_178172.3:c.523G>C in the GPIHBP1 gene has an allele frequency of 0.005 in African subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The GPIHBP1 c.523G>C (p.Gly175Arg) variant has been detected one individual affected with hyperchylomicronemia in homozygous state (PMID: 21816778). Functional study revealed that G175R variant reduced the expression of GPIHBP1 at the cell surface of CHOpgsA-745 cells (PMID: 21816778). Taken together, we interprete this variant as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3; PS3; PP4.

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.

The GPIHBP1 c.523G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly175Arg. This variant has been reported in the heterozygous and homozygous states in individuals with pancreatitis, diabetes and hyperchylomicronemia (Charrière et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21816778; Laurijssen et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35770288). This variant has also been reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with hypertriglyceridemia, hyperlipidemia and Hyperlipoproteinemia (Chyzhyk et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30352774; Gill et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33303402, Table S2; Mor-Shaked et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33223529). Functional studies showed this variant resulted in reducing the expression of GPIHBP1 at the cell surface; however, the significance of this finding is unclear (Charrière et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21816778). In ClinVar, this variant has conflicting interpretations of likely benign, uncertain significance, likely pathogenic and pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/144016/). This variant is reported in 0.55% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-144297361-G-C). Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
