Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points: 1P and 13B. PP3BP4_StrongBP6BS1BS2

The NM_001122955.4(BSCL2):​c.845C>T​(p.Ala282Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000595 in 1,614,176 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 11 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A282T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
BSCL2 (HGNC:15832): (BSCL2 lipid droplet biogenesis associated, seipin) This gene encodes the multi-pass transmembrane protein protein seipin. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and may be important for lipid droplet morphology. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital generalized lipodystrophy type 2 or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome, a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by a near absence of adipose tissue and severe insulin resistance. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Naturally occurring read-through transcription occurs between this locus and the neighboring locus HNRNPUL2 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U-like 2).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
HNRNPUL2-BSCL2 (HGNC:49189): (HNRNPUL2-BSCL2 readthrough (NMD candidate)) This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring HNRNPUL2 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U-like 2) and BSCL2 (Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy 2 (seipin)) genes on chromosome 11. The read-through transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and is unlikely to produce a protein product. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease.

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
