Genes affected
MTTP (HGNC:7467): (microsomal triglyceride transfer protein) MTP encodes the large subunit of the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) completes the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein, which has been shown to play a central role in lipoprotein assembly. Mutations in MTP can cause abetalipoproteinemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: MTTP c.1619G>A (p.Arg540His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Vitellogenin, N-terminal (IPR039988) of the encoded protein sequence, specifically within the alpha-helical region (Khatun_2013). Another missense variant affecting the same amino acid has been classified as likely pathogenic by our laboratory (c.1618C>T, p.Arg540Cys), providing moderate evidence of pathogenicity. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251154 control chromosomes. c.1619G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Abetalipoproteinaemia (Rehberg_1996, Wang_2000, Di Filippo_2019), with evidence of co-segregation in two families. Some individuals are reported as compound heterozygous, carrying other variants in trans likely to be pathogenic. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least two publications reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, showing R540H loses phospholipid and triglyceride transfer activities and the ability to support apoB secretion (Rehberg_1996, Khatun_2013). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, both classifying the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 540 of the MTTP protein (p.Arg540His). This variant is present in population databases (rs199422220, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with abetalipoproteinemia (PMID: 8939939, 10679949, 30522860). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14238). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MTTP protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MTTP function (PMID: 8939939, 23475612). This variant disrupts the p.Arg540 amino acid residue in MTTP. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 25108285, 27578136). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
