Genes affected

ABCA7 (HGNC:37): (ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 7) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the ABC1 subfamily. Members of the ABC1 subfamily comprise the only major ABC subfamily found exclusively in multicellular eukaryotes. This full transporter has been detected predominantly in myelo-lymphatic tissues with the highest expression in peripheral leukocytes, thymus, spleen, and bone marrow. The function of this protein is not yet known; however, the expression pattern suggests a role in lipid homeostasis in cells of the immune system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.

-

The splice acceptor variant c.161-2A>T in ABCA7 (NM_019112.4) has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The variant is present at 0.0004% in gnomAD Exomes but has the flag "Failed Random Forest" and may not represent the true population frequency. The c.161-2A>T variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. This variant affects an invariant splice nucleotide and hence is predicted to cause loss of function. Loss of function variants have been reported before. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Uncertain Significance. -
