Genes affected
ALMS1 (HGNC:428): (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) This gene encodes a protein containing a large tandem-repeat domain as well as additional low complexity regions. The encoded protein functions in microtubule organization, particularly in the formation and maintanance of cilia. Mutations in this gene cause Alstrom syndrome. There is a pseudogene for this gene located adjacent in the same region of chromosome 2. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The ALMS1 c.11410C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg3804*). This variant, also noted as c.11416C>T (p.Arg3806*), has been reported in individuals with Alström syndrome and Leber congenital amaurosis (Bond et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15689433; Wang et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23847139; Etheridge et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32944671). This variant is reported in 0.0083% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in ALMS1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: ALMS1 c.11404C>T (p.Pro3802Ser) (also referred to as c.11410C>T in RefSeq, p.Pro3804Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Alstrom syndrome protein 1 domain (IPR028781) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00024 in 248974 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0033 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2 fold of the estimated maximal predicted allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ALMS1 causing Alstrom Syndrome With Dilated Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.0018), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.11404C>T in individuals affected with Alstrom Syndrome With Dilated Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as likely benign (n=2) and VUS (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
