Genes affected
LCT (HGNC:6530): (lactase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 1 family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature enzyme. This enzyme is integral to the plasma membrane and has both phlorizin hydrolase activity and lactase activity. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital lactase deficiency. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with lactase persistence, in which intestinal lactase activity persists at childhood levels into adulthood. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:curation

NM_002299.2:c.4170T>A in the LCT gene has an allele frequency of 0.01 in European (Finnish) subpopulation in the gnomAD database. Twenty-seven patients out of 32 (84%) affected with congenital lactase deficiency were homozygous for this nonsense mutation, c.4170T>A (p.Y1390X) (PMID: 16400612). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Taken together, we interprete this variant as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1; PS4. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr1390*) in the LCT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LCT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16400612, 25881162). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908936, gnomAD 0.9%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital lactase deficiency (PMID: 16400612). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6586). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
