Genes affected

SMPD1 (HGNC:11120): (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. The encoded protein also has phospholipase C activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA) and Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 4 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-6394494-CTT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-6394494-CTT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 370328.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: SMPD1 c.1785_1786delTT (p.Ala597ProfsX7) results in a premature termination codon in the last exon that is not expected to cause nonsense mediated decay (NMD), but is predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein, removing the last 35 amino acids of the encoded protein. Truncations downstream of this position have been reported in affected individuals (HGMD). The variant was absent in 250890 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1785_1786delTT has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Niemann-Pick Disease Type A (Pavlu-Pereira_2005, Thurberg_2020, Hu_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One of these publications reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated almost complete absence of enzyme activity in a liver sample derived from a homozygous patient (Pavlu-Pereira_2005). Three other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as pathogenic (n=2) / likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala597Profs*7) in the SMPD1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 35 amino acid(s) of the SMPD1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ASM deficiency (PMID: 15877209, 26913189). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370328). This variant disrupts a region of the SMPD1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg602Valfs*11) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 27338287; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
