Wilson disease Pathogenic:6
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Dec 30, 2023 | This sequence change falls in intron 7 of the ATP7B gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ATP7B protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Wilson disease (PMID: 12325021, 20967755, 31172689). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35705). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 8, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 12325021). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Sep 27, 2024 | This variant causes a T to G nucleotide substitution at the -8 position of intron 7 of the ATP7B gene. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Wilson disease (PMID: 12325021, 18728530, 20967755, 31172689, 34400371). In two of these affected individuals, this variant has been determined to be homozygous (PMID: 12325021) or compound heterozygous (PMID: 31172689) with another pathogenic variant in the same gene, indicating that this variant contributes to Wilson disease in an autosomal recessive manner. RT-PCR analysis of lymphocytes from an individual homozygous for this variant showed the predominant transcript had an in-frame deletion of exon 8 (PMID: 12325021). In the same study, RNA extracted from lymphocytes from a healthy control also produced a transcript with an in-frame deletion of exon 8, in addition to the full length transcript. These results have been replicated with a minigene assay (Wilson 2009, thesis, University of Alberta). To our knowledge, protein functional consequence of exon 8 deletion has not been investigated in the literature. However, exon 8 encodes transmembrane domains of the ATP7B protein, where many pathogenic missense variants have been reported. In summary, this variant has been shown to increase the proportion of an aberrant transcript with in-frame deletion of exon 8 that encodes a functionally important transmembrane domains and have been observed in individuals with Wilson disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. - |
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Jun 11, 2020 | The c.2122-8T>G variant in ATP7B has been previously reported in three individuals with Wilson disease, including one homozygous individual and one individual who had a second uncertain ATP7B variant (Loudianos 2002, Nicastro 2010, Zappu 2008). This variant was absent from large population studies. An RT-PCR study performed on leukocytes from an individual homozygous for the variant indicated skipping of exon 8 (Loudianos 2002). While there is at least 1 transcript in GTEX that does not include exon 8, there are multiple pathogenic variants in this exon which suggests that this region may be important for protein function. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive Wilson disease.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Sep 01, 2022 | Functional studies by RT-PCR analysis demonstrated the c.2122-8 T>G variant results in the prevalent production of a transcript with the in-frame deletion of exon 8 (Loudianos et al., 2002); Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on splicing; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 18728530, 11076401, 12325021, 34400371, 20967755) - |

ATP7B-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Mar 25, 2024 | The ATP7B c.2122-8T>G variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals with Wilson disease (Loudianos et al 2002. PubMed ID: 12325021; Nicastro E et al 2010. PubMed ID: 20967755; Li X et al 2019. PubMed ID: 31172689; Couchonnal E et al 2021. PubMed ID: 34400371). Functional studies using RT-PCR analysis showed that this variant may either result in a in frame deletion of exon 8 or activate a cryptic splice site that leads to a frameshift and truncated protein (Loudianos et al 2002. PubMed ID: 12325021). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. - |
