Genes affected
LIPA (HGNC:6617): (lipase A, lysosomal acid type) This gene encodes lipase A, the lysosomal acid lipase (also known as cholesterol ester hydrolase). This enzyme functions in the lysosome to catalyze the hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides. Mutations in this gene can result in Wolman disease and cholesteryl ester storage disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 04, 2023Variant summary: LIPA c.966+3A>T alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00015 in 251392 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in LIPA causing Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency (0.00015 vs 0.0027), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.966+3A>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (example:Sjouke_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
LIPA-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 13, 2024The LIPA c.966+3A>T variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant has been reported in an individual with hypercholesterolaemia (Sjouke et al 2016. PubMed ID: 27423329). This variant has been reported in 0.028% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Wolman disease Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 13, 2022This sequence change falls in intron 9 of the LIPA gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the LIPA protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs201242614, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 27423329). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 499076). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
