Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 3P and 2B. PM1PP2BP4_Moderate

The NM_000041.4(APOE):​c.725G>A​(p.Arg242Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000844 in 1,539,848 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as no classification for the single variant (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R242R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
APOE (HGNC:613): (apolipoprotein E) The protein encoded by this gene is a major apoprotein of the chylomicron. It binds to a specific liver and peripheral cell receptor, and is essential for the normal catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein constituents. This gene maps to chromosome 19 in a cluster with the related apolipoprotein C1 and C2 genes. Mutations in this gene result in familial dysbetalipoproteinemia, or type III hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP III), in which increased plasma cholesterol and triglycerides are the consequence of impaired clearance of chylomicron and VLDL remnants.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.

PM1
In a region_of_interest 8 X 22 AA approximate tandem repeats (size 175) in uniprot entity APOE_HUMAN there are 12 pathogenic changes around while only 3 benign (80%) in NM_000041.4
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 16 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.74028 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -1.1391 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hyperlipoproteinemia type 3, sea-blue histiocyte syndrome, lipoprotein glomerulopathy, Alzheimer disease 2.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.086814374).
