Genes affected

OTC (HGNC:8512): (ornithine transcarbamylase) This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial matrix enzyme. The encoded protein is involved in the urea cycle which functions to detoxify ammonia into urea for excretion. Mutations in this enzyme lead to ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, which causes hyperammonemia. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.58).

This variant causes a T to C nucleotide substition at the -143 position in the 5' untranslated region of the OTC gene. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with OTC-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different variants occurring in the 5' untranslated region of the OTC gene have been reported to be pathogenic (PMID: 29282796). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
