Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000271.5(NPC1):​c.2833G>A​(p.Asp945Asn) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000248 in 1,613,568 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002819470: Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, demonstrated the variant to cause a reduction in total protein expression and result in protein of distinct molecular weights, one equivalent to the wild type and the other equivalent to that found in lower-molecular-weight mutants. Furthermore, the variant showed defective cholesterol trafficking. Taken together, the authors concluded the variant to be pathogenic (Erwood_2019).". Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. D945D) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV002819470: Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, demonstrated the variant to cause a reduction in total protein expression and result in protein of distinct molecular weights, one equivalent to the wild type and the other equivalent to that found in lower-molecular-weight mutants. Furthermore, the variant showed defective cholesterol trafficking. Taken together, the authors concluded the variant to be pathogenic (Erwood_2019).
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 8 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_000271.5
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 171 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 18 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.0917 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.706 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe early infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, late infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, juvenile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe perinatal form, Niemann-Pick disease type C, adult neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease, type C1.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.994
PP5
Variant 18-23539433-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-23539433-C-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 539312.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
