Genes affected

ATP7B (HGNC:870): (ATPase copper transporting beta) This gene is a member of the P-type cation transport ATPase family and encodes a protein with several membrane-spanning domains, an ATPase consensus sequence, a hinge domain, a phosphorylation site, and at least 2 putative copper-binding sites. This protein is a monomer, and functions as a copper-transporting ATPase which exports copper out of the cells, such as the efflux of hepatic copper into the bile. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms with distinct cellular localizations, have been characterized. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Wilson disease which is characterized by copper accumulation. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2019]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-51937395-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-51937395-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 371387.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: ATP7B c.3904-2A>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes the canonical 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 249592 control chromosomes. c.3904-2A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Wilson Disease (Figus_1995, Abdelghaffar_2008, Gojova_2008). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8533760, 18483695, 18371106). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371387). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 18 of the ATP7B gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ATP7B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10441329, 16283883). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Wilson disease (PMID: 8533760, 18483695, 21645214). This variant is also known as IVS18-2A>G, c.3907-2A->G or c.3700-2A>G. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371387). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The ATP7B c.3904-2A>G, variant (rs1057517233) is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Wilson disease (Abdel Ghaffar 2011, Figus 1995, Sapuppo 2020). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 371387). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical splice donor site of intron 18, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.
