Genes affected
ABCG5 (HGNC:13886): (ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 5) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the White subfamily. The protein encoded by this gene functions as a half-transporter to limit intestinal absorption and promote biliary excretion of sterols. It is expressed in a tissue-specific manner in the liver, colon, and intestine. This gene is tandemly arrayed on chromosome 2, in a head-to-head orientation with family member ABCG8. Mutations in this gene may contribute to sterol accumulation and atheroschlerosis, and have been observed in patients with sitosterolemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
DYNC2LI1 (HGNC:24595): (dynein cytoplasmic 2 light intermediate chain 1) This gene encodes a protein that is a component of the dynein-2 microtubule motor protein complex that plays a role in the retrograde transport of cargo in primary cilia via the intraflagellar transport system. This gene is ubiquitously expressed and its protein, which localizes to the axoneme and Golgi apparatus, interacts directly with the cytoplasmic dynein 2 heavy chain 1 protein to form part of the multi-protein dynein-2 complex. Mutations in this gene produce defects in the dynein-2 complex which result in several types of ciliopathy including short-rib thoracic dysplasia 15 with polydactyly (SRTD15). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2017]

The R198Q variant in the ABCG5 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The R198Q variant is observed in 276/126,586 (0.2%) alleles from individuals of non-Finnish European background in large population cohorts, and no individuals were reported to be homozygous (Lek et al., 2016). The R198Q variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support a deleterious effect. We interpret R198Q as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Variant summary: ABCG5 c.593G>A (p.Arg198Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter-like, ATP-binding domain (IPR003439) of the encoded protein sequence. 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0012 in 251200 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ABCG5 causing Early Onset Coronary Artery Disease (0.0012 vs 0.005), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.593G>A has been reported in individuals affected with Hypercholesterolemias and Sitosterolemia (Lamiquiz-Moneo_2017, Dron_2020, Dong_2022,Toton-Zuranska_2023), without strong evidence for causality. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Early Onset Coronary Artery Disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35460704, 32041611, 29066094, 36648309). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 284636). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

The p.R198Q variant (also known as c.593G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the ABCG5 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 593. The arginine at codon 198 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported as heterozygous in familial hypercholesterolemia cohorts (Lamiquiz-Moneo I et al. J Clin Lipidol, 2017 Oct;11:1432-1440.e4; Pillai KKB et al. Clin Chim Acta, 2022 Feb;527:47-55; Rutkowska L et al. Genes (Basel), 2022 Jun;13:[ePub ahead of print]). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
