chr11-6390705-TGCTGGCGCTGGCGCTGGC-T

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -15 ACMG points: 2P and 17B. PM1BP3BP6_Very_StrongBA1

The NM_000543.5(SMPD1):​c.126_143delGCTGGCGCTGGCGCTGGC​(p.Leu43_Ala48del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00416 in 1,595,104 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 237 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A42A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
SMPD1 (HGNC:11120): (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. The encoded protein also has phospholipase C activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA) and Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Variant summary: SMPD1 c.126_143del18 (p.Ala44_Leu49del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove 6 amino acids from the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0069 in 110368 control chromosomes in the ExAC database, including 43 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 3.071 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SMPD1 causing Niemann-Pick Disease Type A phenotype (0.0022), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.126_143del18 in individuals affected with Niemann-Pick Disease Type A and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
