Genes affected

NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -16 ACMG points.

• BP6: Variant 18-23543572-TAA-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr18-23543572-TAA-T is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 522212.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr18-23543572-TAA-T is described in Lovd as [Benign]. Variant chr18-23543572-TAA-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_benign].
• BA1: GnomAdExome4 highest subpopulation (EAS) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.37 is higher than 0.05.
