chr2-73385903-TGGAGGAGGAGGAGGA-T

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BP3BP6BS1BS2

The NM_001378454.1(ALMS1):​c.60_74delGGAGGAGGAGGAGGA​(p.Glu21_Glu25del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00173 in 557,738 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 17 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E20E) has been classified as Likely benign.

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.

Variant summary: ALMS1 c.57_74del18 (p.Glu23_Glu28del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove six amino acids from the repeat region of encoded protein. The variant was absent in 83366 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.57_74del18 in individuals affected with Alstrom Syndrome With Dilated Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported internally (MYBPC3 c.1227-13G>A), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
