Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000543.5(SMPD1):c.680T>C(p.Leu227Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000124 in 1,609,088 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L227V) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Niemann-Pick disease, type A;C0268243:Niemann-Pick disease, type B Pathogenic:2
ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553073). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 227 of the SMPD1 protein (p.Leu227Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs764317969, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick disease (PMID: 15241805, 34273913). This variant is also known as c.674T>C (p.L225P). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SMPD1 function (PMID: 16010684, 19405096). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: SMPD1 c.680T>C (p.Leu227Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Calcineurin-like phosphoesterase domain, ApaH type domain (IPR004843) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 247098 control chromosomes. c.680T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Niemann-Pick Disease (Pittis_2004, Bonetto_2005, Zanetti_2020, Deshpande_2021). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least two functional papers report this variant results in deficient activity of acid sphingomyelinase (Dardis_2005, Rodrguez-Pascau_2009). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26499107, 16010684, 15241805, 19405096, 27725636, 16264060, 27435900, 32036093, 34273913). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553073). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
