Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PM1PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000478.6(ALPL):c.1172G>A(p.Arg391His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000991 in 1,614,082 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 14/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R391C) has been classified as Pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 391 of the ALPL protein (p.Arg391His). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant hypophosphatasia (PMID: 11760847, 19500388, 25731960; internal data). This variant is also known as Arg374His. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550626). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ALPL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ALPL function (PMID: 11760847, 19500388). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Published functional studies demonstrate the R391H variant has reduced activity compared to wildtype, which is consistent with loss of function (PMID: 19500388, 32160374, 37422472); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32160374, 11760847, 34662886, 19500388, 29236161, 37422472, 38702915, 37600704, 34633109) -

Childhood hypophosphatasia Pathogenic:1
A heterozygous pathogenic variant was identified in ALPL (NM_000478.4:c.1172G>A, p.Arg391His, rs1442918125). The result is consistent with a diagnosis of ALPL-related hypophosphatasia. No additional clinically significant variants in ALPL were observed. The c.1172G>A variant is located in exon 10 of the ALPL gene. This variant substitutes the arginine with histidine at amino acid position 391 of the protein. The p.Arg391His variant has previously been reported in two unrelated individuals with hypophosphatasia (PMID: 11760847, 19500388). One individual had odontohypophosphatasia (PMID: 11760847), whereas the other individual had childhood-onset hypophosphatasia at 18 months of age characterized by rib fractures (PMID: 19500388). A second pathogenic ALPL variant was not identified in either reported case. This is a conserved nucleotide across species and several in silico tools predict this substitution would be damaging to protein function. Experimental studies have demonstrated that the p.Arg391His change causes a near complete loss of ALPL enzymatic activity (PMID: 11760847). Further supporting pathogenicity of this variant, a different missense change at the same residue (p.Arg391Cys) has been reported in multiple individuals with hypophosphatasia (PMID: 19500388, 10332035). In the case of childhood-onset hypophosphatasia, the p.Arg391His variant was inherited from a parent, but no clinical information was provided for this parent (PMID: 19500388). The p.Arg391His variant has also been observed in 3 of 282,880 alleles in a large population study (GnomAD v2.1). While individuals with severe pediatric disease have been removed from this dataset, it remains possible that individuals with mild or adult-onset forms of hypophosphatasia are included in this cohort. With the currently available information, ALPL p.Arg391His is considered a pathogenic variant, albeit with variable expressivity and possibly reduced penetrance, as has been observed for other pathogenic ALPL variants (NBK1150). Hypophosphatasia may be inherited in an autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant manner. -
