Genes affected
NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 29, 2017The c.2131-14_2131-4del11 variant in the NPC1 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to destroy the splice acceptor site in intron 13, and is expected to cause abnormal gene splicing. However, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of c.2131-14_2131-4del11 in this individual is unknown. The c.2131-14_2131-4del11 variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). We interpret c.2131-14_2131-4del11 as a variant of uncertain significance. -
