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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-21560691-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-21560691-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 371247.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-21560691-CT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln44Argfs*24) in the ALPL gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ALPL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 3174660, 10679946, 32973344, 33814268). This variant is present in population databases (rs763244290, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hypophosphatasia (PMID: 25731960). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371247). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
