Genes affected
LYST (HGNC:1968): (lysosomal trafficking regulator) This gene encodes a protein that regulates intracellular protein trafficking in endosomes, and may be involved in pigmentation. Mutations in this gene are associated with Chediak-Higashi syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, though the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1028 of the LYST protein (p.Ser1028Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs150636017, gnomAD 0.09%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LYST-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 296408). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The cysteine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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.

Variant summary: LYST c.3083C>G (p.Ser1028Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was detected in control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00089, predominantly in the Non-Finnish European population at a frequency of 0.0011. This frequency is approaching the estimated threshold for a pathogenic variant in LYST causing Chediak-Higashi Syndrome (0.0011 vs 0.0011), suggesting the variant may be benign. c.3083C>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with juvenille idopathic arthritis (e.g. Meng_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Chediak-Higashi Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33408077). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 296408). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The LYST c.3083C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser1028Cys. This variant was reported in an individual with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (Table S5, Meng et al 2021. PubMed ID: 33408077). This variant is reported in 0.088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD, which may be too frequent to be a primary cause of disease. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

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.
