Genes affected
SLC22A5 (HGNC:10969): (solute carrier family 22 member 5) Polyspecific organic cation transporters in the liver, kidney, intestine, and other organs are critical for elimination of many endogenous small organic cations as well as a wide array of drugs and environmental toxins. The encoded protein is a plasma integral membrane protein which functions both as an organic cation transporter and as a sodium-dependent high affinity carnitine transporter. The encoded protein is involved in the active cellular uptake of carnitine. Mutations in this gene are the cause of systemic primary carnitine deficiency (CDSP), an autosomal recessive disorder manifested early in life by hypoketotic hypoglycemia and acute metabolic decompensation, and later in life by skeletal myopathy or cardiomyopathy. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Variant summary: SLC22A5 c.761G>A (p.Arg254Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Major facilitator superfamily domain (IPR020846) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.9e-05 in 251486 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SLC22A5 causing Systemic Primary Carnitine Deficiency (9.9e-05 vs 0.0046), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.761G>A has been observed in individuals affected with Systemic Primary Carnitine Deficiency (Gallant_2017, Zhou_2019, Yang_2021, internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function demonstrated the variant retained significant residual carnitine transport activity (Frigeni_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32778825, 28841266, 28711408, 37510298, 26828774, 34178604, 34249102, 30863740). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25389). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 254 of the SLC22A5 protein (p.Arg254Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs200699819, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with low plasma carnitine levels and primary carnitine deficiency (PMID: 26828774, 28711408, 37510298; internal data; http://www.arup.utah.edu/database/OCTN2/OCTN2_display.php). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25389). 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 SLC22A5 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect SLC22A5 function (PMID: 28841266). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
