Genes affected

SLC25A15 (HGNC:10985): (solute carrier family 25 member 15) This gene is a member of the mitochondrial carrier family. The encoded protein transports ornithine across the inner mitochondrial membrane from the cytosol to the mitochondrial matrix. The protein is an essential component of the urea cycle, and functions in ammonium detoxification and biosynthesis of the amino acid arginine. Mutations in this gene result in hyperornithinemia-hyperammonemia-homocitrullinuria (HHH) syndrome. There is a pseudogene of this locus on the Y chromosome.[provided by RefSeq, May 2009]

TPTE2P5 (HGNC:42356): (TPTE2 pseudogene 5)

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 2 uncertain in NM_014252.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 15 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 4 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.10098 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.3225 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to ornithine translocase deficiency.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant 13-40799096-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-40799096-C-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 6000.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has been previously reported as a homozygous change in patients with Hyperornithinemia-Hyperammonemia-Homocitrullinuria Syndrome (PMID: 16940241). In vitro overexpression studies of this variant showed that it diminished but does not completely abolish SLC25A15 protein function (PMID: 16940241). Additional studies using fibroblasts from patients carrying this variant in the homozygous state also showed a reduction in protein function (PMID: 16940241). It is absent from the ExAC and gnomAD population databases and thus is presumed to be rare. The c.95C>G (p.Thr32Arg) variant affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. Based on the available evidence, the c.95C>G (p.Thr32Arg) variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC25A15 function (PMID: 16940241). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6000). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with HHH syndrome (PMID: 16940241). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 32 of the SLC25A15 protein (p.Thr32Arg). -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: SLC25A15 c.95C>G (p.Thr32Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251496 control chromosomes. c.95C>G has been observed in multiple homozygous individuals affected with Hyperornithinemia-Hyperammonemia-Homocitrullinuria Syndrome (e.g. Camacho_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (e.g. Camacho_2006). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16940241). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6000). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
