Genes affected

APOA1 (HGNC:600): (apolipoprotein A1) This gene encodes apolipoprotein A-I, which is the major protein component of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in plasma. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein, which promotes cholesterol efflux from tissues to the liver for excretion, and is a cofactor for lecithin cholesterolacyltransferase (LCAT), an enzyme responsible for the formation of most plasma cholesteryl esters. This gene is closely linked with two other apolipoprotein genes on chromosome 11. Defects in this gene are associated with HDL deficiencies, including Tangier disease, and with systemic non-neuropathic amyloidosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Aug 14, 2018	Variant summary: APOA1 c.732C>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant creates a cryptic 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0012 in 275838 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.011 within the African subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 440-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in APOA1 causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African origin. A publication cites the variant in a cohort from the Copenhagen City Heart Study (Haase_2012), but with limitied information. A ClinVar submission from another clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as "likely benign." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 13, 2018	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 and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -
