Genes affected
SMPD1 (HGNC:11120): (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. The encoded protein also has phospholipase C activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA) and Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Variant summary: SMPD1 c.940G>A (p.Val314Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Calcineurin-like phosphoesterase domain, ApaH type domain (IPR004843) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251476 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.940G>A has been reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous genotypes in individuals affected with Niemann-Pick Disease Type B (example, Desnick_2010, Deodato_2018, Lipinski_2019). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Desnick_2010, Lipinski_2019). The most pronounced variant effect results in 10%-<30% of normal activity. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30153451, 30795770, 27435900, 20386867). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556090). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 314 of the SMPD1 protein (p.Val314Met). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (PMID: 20386867, 30153451, 30795770). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556090). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SMPD1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SMPD1 function (PMID: 20386867). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
