Genes affected
CYP27A1 (HGNC:2605): (cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1) This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This mitochondrial protein oxidizes cholesterol intermediates as part of the bile synthesis pathway. Since the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids is the major route for removing cholesterol from the body, this protein is important for overall cholesterol homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a rare autosomal recessive lipid storage disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (Chen_1998). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251236 control chromosomes. c.1183C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis and clinical frontotemporal dementia (Chen_1998, Blauwendraat_2018). Additionally, the demonstrated alternative pre-mRNA splicing was shown to lead to decreased sterol 27-hydroxylase activity (Chen_1998). Other variants at the same codon have been widely reported to be pathogenic (p.Arg395Cys, p.Arg395His). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4261). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 14, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 395 of the CYP27A1 protein (p.Arg395Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908096, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (PMID: 9790667, 28749476). This variant is also known as p.Arg362Ser. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4261). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Studies have shown that this missense change alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 9790667). This variant disrupts the p.Arg395 amino acid residue in CYP27A1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 2019602, 20402754, 26156051). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
