Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_Strong

The NM_006432.5(NPC2):​c.271G>T​(p.Asp91Tyr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,890 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D91N) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
NPC2 (HGNC:14537): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 2) This gene encodes a protein containing a lipid recognition domain. The encoded protein may function in regulating the transport of cholesterol through the late endosomal/lysosomal system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Niemann-Pick disease, type C2 and frontal lobe atrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
