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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.03251478 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 13-51941080-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-51941080-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 495416.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jul 18, 2022	Variant summary: ATP7B c.3556+1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 249588 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.3556+1G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Wilson Disease (Karunas_2000, Khidiyatova_2008 proceedings of World Medical Conference, Balashova_2020, Couchonnal_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. A variant involving the same nucleotide, c.3556+1G>A, has been classififed as likely pathgoenic by our lab. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and both laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic (n=1) or likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Fulgent Genetics, Fulgent Genetics	Apr 21, 2022	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Aug 10, 2022	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495416). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Wilson disease (PMID: 7626145, 10994503, 26799313, 31708252; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 16 of the ATP7B gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ATP7B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10441329, 16283883). -
