Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 4P and 6B. PM1PP2PP5BP4BS1_SupportingBS2

The NM_000271.5(NPC1):​c.3011C>T​(p.Ser1004Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000728 in 1,614,152 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S1004S) 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: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_000271.5
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 C1, Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe early infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, late infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, adult neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, juvenile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe perinatal form.
PP5
Variant 18-23538572-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-23538572-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 326253.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.3705725). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000736 (1076/1461878) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00448 (178/39698). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00395. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 532 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 2 AR gene
