Genes affected

ALMS1 (HGNC:428): (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) This gene encodes a protein containing a large tandem-repeat domain as well as additional low complexity regions. The encoded protein functions in microtubule organization, particularly in the formation and maintanance of cilia. Mutations in this gene cause Alstrom syndrome. There is a pseudogene for this gene located adjacent in the same region of chromosome 2. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Aug 17, 2020	Variant summary: ALMS1 c.60_74del15 (p.Glu24_Glu28del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove 5 amino acids in a Glu repeat polymorphic region. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.012 in 27198 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.039 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 8 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 17 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ALMS1 causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.0022), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as likely benign, and one laboratory classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
