Variant summary: The SMPD1 c.557C>T (p.Pro186Leu, more commonly referred to as Pro184Leu) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 3/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 21724 control chromosomes and has been reported in multiple affected individuals in the literature. Functional studies have shown the variant to result in significantly reduced ASM activity in both patient fibroblasts and in transiently expressed cell systems (Simonaro_2006, Pavlu-Pereira_2005). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Niemann-Pick disease, type A;C0268243:Niemann-Pick disease, type B Pathogenic:2
This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 186 of the SMPD1 protein (p.Pro186Leu). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick (PMID: 15877209, 16642440, 17011332, 21454466). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Pro184Leu. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371341). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SMPD1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

SMPD1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The SMPD1 c.557C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro186Leu. This variant has been previously reported in the compound heterozygous state in patients with acid sphingomyelinase deficiency/Niemann-Pick Disease (Pavlů-Pereira et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15877209; See Figure 2, Simonaro et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16642440; Table 2, Wasserstein et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 17011332). Of note, this variant is also referred to as p.Pro184Leu in some literature. This variant was also reported as likely pathogenic/pathogenic in a large cohort study of carrier screening (Table S1, Capalbo. 2019. PubMed ID: 31589614). This variant is reported in 0.0075% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. In summary, we classify this variant as pathogenic. -
Sphingomyelin/cholesterol lipidosis Pathogenic:1
The p.Pro186Leu variant in SMPD1 (also known as p.Pro184Leu due to a difference in cDNA numbering) has been reported in at least 7 individuals with Niemann-Pick disease (PMID: 16642440, 17011332, 15877209, 21454466) and has been identified in 0.007% (2/26776) of Latino chromosomes, 0.004% (1/23626) of South Asian chromosomes, and 0.002% (2/80306) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs1057517195). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (VariationID: 271341) as likely pathogenic by Counsyl and as pathogenic by Integrated Genetics and EGL Genetic Diagnostics. In vitro functional studies provide conflicting evidence about whether the variant may impact protein function (PMID: 15877209, 16642440). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. The phenotype of an individual compound heterozygous for this variant is highly specific for Niemann-Pick disease based on acid sphingomyelinase activity being <10% of normal consistent with disease (PMID: 15877209). The presence of this variant in 2 affected homozygotes and in combination with reported pathogenic variants in 4 individuals with Niemann-Pick disease increases the likelihood that the p.Pro186Leu variant in SMPD1 is pathogenic (VariationID: 2994, 100731; PMID: 16642440, 17011332, 15877209, 21454466). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Niemann-Pick disease in an autosomal recessive manner based on its presence in affected homozygotes and compound heterozygotes, the phenotype of individuals with variants being highly specific for disease, and computational evidence.
