Genes affected
SLC7A9 (HGNC:11067): (solute carrier family 7 member 9) This gene encodes a protein that belongs to a family of light subunits of amino acid transporters. This protein plays a role in the high-affinity and sodium-independent transport of cystine and neutral and dibasic amino acids, and appears to function in the reabsorption of cystine in the kidney tubule. Mutations in this gene cause non-type I cystinuria, a disease that leads to cystine stones in the urinary system due to impaired transport of cystine and dibasic amino acids. Alternate transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]

This individual is heterozygous for the c.313G>A variant in the SLC7A9 gene, which results in the amino acid substitution of glycine to arginine at residue 105, p.(Gly105Arg). This variant has been previously described multiple times in the literature as the most common variant in SLC7A9 to cause cystinuria (OMIM #604144). Individuals heterozygous for the p.(Gly105Arg) variant has variable hyperexcretion of cystine and dibasic amino acids, consistent with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance with variable expressivity (Font-Llitjos et al 2005 J Med Genet 42: 58-68). This variant is considered to be pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -

(P) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (N) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (P) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (N) 0801 - Strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. More than 10 patients with Cystinuria have been reported with this variant (ClinVar, PMID: 28646536). (P) 1002 - Moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. In vitro assays demonstrated reduced cysteine transport (PMID: 11157794 ). (P) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available.

Across a selection of the available literature, the SLC7A9 c.313G>A (p.Gly105Arg) variant has been identified in a homozygous state in at least eight patients with cystinuria, in a compound heterozygous state in four patients, in a heterozygous state in six patients, and in at least 37 additional patient alleles where zygosity is unspecified (Font et al. 2001; Font-Llitjós et al. 2005; Koulivand et al. 2015; Rhodes et al. 2015; Halbritter et al. 2015). It has also been observed in at least two patients who also carried variants in the SLC3A1 gene (Font-Llitjós et al. 2005; Rhodes et al. 2015). The p.Gly105Arg variant was absent from at least 100 control chromosomes (Font et al. 2001) and is reported at a frequency of 0.01402 in the Toscani in Italy population of the 1000 Genomes Project. Functional studies in HeLa cells showed the variant reduced protein expression and amino acid transport activity to ten percent of wild type (Font et al. 2001). The variant is located in a well-conserved residue. While cystinuria generally displays an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, some heterozygous carriers of variants in the SLC7A9 gene have abnormal urinary amino acid patterns and an increased risk of kidney stones (Eggermann et al. 2012). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Gly105Arg variant is classified as pathogenic for cystinuria. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 105 of the SLC7A9 protein (p.Gly105Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908480, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with cystinuria (PMID: 10471498, 12036192, 16138908, 16225397, 16834950, 16838140, 19782624, 21677404, 23532419, 25296721, 28717662). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5781). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SLC7A9 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC7A9 function (PMID: 11157794). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Reported as a single heterozygous variant in individuals with cystinuria (Font et al., 2001; Halbritter et al., 2015; Gaildrat et al., 2017); Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect due to almost completely abolishing the amino acid transport activity of the protein, retaining only approximately 10% of wild-type transport activity (Font et al., 2001); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 10471498, 11157794, 25296721, 28717662, 31589614, 33262960, 28812535, 30069816, 21677404, 26990548, 33226606) -

The SLC7A9 c.313G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly105Arg. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and heterozygous state in many individuals with cystinuria, non-type 1 resulting in nephrolithiasis (OMIM #220100; ICC. 1999. PubMed ID: 10471498; Font et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11157794; Gucev et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21677404; Halbritter et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25296721). Functional studies indicate that the p.Gly105Arg protein variant only has 10% activity of the wild type protein which results in impaired cystine transport and a more severe urinary phenotype (Font et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11157794). From a large cohort study, it was observed that individuals with a single pathogenic SLC7A9 variant had a mean onset of 30 years, whereas individuals with two pathogenic variants had a mean onset of 18 years (Halbritter et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25296721). In summary, we classify the c.313G>A variant as pathogenic. -
