Genes affected
ATP7B (HGNC:870): (ATPase copper transporting beta) This gene is a member of the P-type cation transport ATPase family and encodes a protein with several membrane-spanning domains, an ATPase consensus sequence, a hinge domain, a phosphorylation site, and at least 2 putative copper-binding sites. This protein is a monomer, and functions as a copper-transporting ATPase which exports copper out of the cells, such as the efflux of hepatic copper into the bile. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms with distinct cellular localizations, have been characterized. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Wilson disease which is characterized by copper accumulation. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2019]

Variant summary: ATP7B c.2945C>T (p.Ala982Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant was absent in 249350 control chromosomes. c.2945C>T has been observed in the compound heterozygous state in at least two individuals affected with Wilson Disease and in two additional indiviudals affected with Wilson Disease with unknown genotypes (Ferenci_2019, Merle_2010, Lepori_2007, Simon_2008). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with 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: 30232804, 17949296, 20082719, 18416466). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553438). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
