Some evidence suggests that this pathogenic variant is associated with a less severe form of Niemann-Pick disease type-B -
The p.Arg476Trp variant in SMPD1 (also known as p.Arg474Trp due to a difference in cDNA numbering) has been reported in at least 11 individuals with Niemann-Pick disease (PMID: 31122880, 12712061, 23252888, 19405096, 29995201, 12369017, 15877209) and has been identified in 0.012% (3/24964) of African chromosomes and 0.006% (2/35438) of Latino chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs182812968). 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 (Variation ID: 93315) as pathogenic by Integrated Genetics, EGL Genetic Diagnostics, and GeneReviews, and likely pathogenic by Counsyl and Invitae. 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 individuals 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: 19405096, 15877209). The presence of this variant in combination with reported pathogenic variants in at least 7 individuals with Niemann-Pick disease increases the likelihood that the p.Arg476Trp variant is pathogenic (VariationID: 242451, 2980, 2990, 2993, 198093, 100731, 195086; PMID: 31122880, 12712061, 23252888, 19405096, 29995201, 12369017). 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 combination with other pathogenic variants, low frequency in the general population, and the phenotype of individuals with the variant being highly specific for disease. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_very-strong, PM2_supporting, PP3, PP4 (Richards 2015). -
not specified Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: The SMPD1 c.1426C>T (p.Arg476Trp) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide located in the Metallo-dependent phosphatase-like (InterPro). 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 6/277218 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000216, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic SMPD1 variant (0.0022361). The variant has been reported in numerous affected compound heterozygote individuals in the literature. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
SMPD1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The SMPD1 c.1426C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg476Trp. This variant has been reported to be causative for autosomal recessive Niemann-Pick disease, primarily the milder type B disorder (also described as p.Arg474Trp, Simonaro et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12369017; Rodríguez-Pascau et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19405096; Irun et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23252888). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Based on the available evidence, we classify this variant as pathogenic. -
Niemann-Pick disease, type A;C0268243:Niemann-Pick disease, type B Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 476 of the SMPD1 protein (p.Arg476Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs182812968, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick disease type B (PMID: 12369017, 12712061, 15234149, 23252888; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as p.Arg474Trp. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 93315). 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%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg476 amino acid residue in SMPD1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with SMPD1-related conditions (PMID: 12712061, 26499107), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
