Genes affected
NPC1L1 (HGNC:7898): (NPC1 like intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a multi-pass membrane protein. It contains a conserved N-terminal Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) domain and a putative sterol-sensing domain (SSD) which includes a YQRL motif functioning as a plasma membrane to trans-Golgi network transport signal in other proteins. This protein takes up free cholesterol into cells through vesicular endocytosis and plays a critical role in the absorption of intestinal cholesterol. It also has the ability to transport alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E). The drug ezetimibe targets this protein and inhibits the absorption of intestinal cholesterol and alpha-tocopherol. In addition, this protein may play a critical role in regulating lipid metabolism. Polymorphic variations in this gene are associated with plasma total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 09, 2024The c.3713C>A (p.A1238E) alteration is located in exon 18 (coding exon 18) of the NPC1L1 gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 3713, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 1238 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
