Genes affected

LIPC (HGNC:6619): (lipase C, hepatic type) Enables phospholipase A1 activity and triglyceride lipase activity. Involved in several processes, including lipid homeostasis; plasma lipoprotein particle remodeling; and triglyceride catabolic process. Located in extracellular space. Implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; coronary artery disease; familial combined hyperlipidemia; peripheral vascular disease; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Biomarker of hyperinsulinism; obesity; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

LIPC-AS1 (HGNC:52294): (LIPC antisense RNA 1)

ALDH1A2 (HGNC:15472): (aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member A2) This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. The product of this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of retinoic acid (RA) from retinaldehyde. Retinoic acid, the active derivative of vitamin A (retinol), is a hormonal signaling molecule that functions in developing and adult tissues. The studies of a similar mouse gene suggest that this enzyme and the cytochrome CYP26A1, concurrently establish local embryonic retinoic acid levels which facilitate posterior organ development and prevent spina bifida. Four transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.88).
