Genes affected
HPS4 (HGNC:15844): (HPS4 biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex 3 subunit 2) This gene encodes a protein component of biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complexes (BLOC). BLOC complexes are important for the formation of endosomal-lysosomal organelles such as melanosomes and platelet dense granules. Mutations in this gene result in subtype 4 of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, a form of albinism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedliterature onlyOMIMMar 01, 2002- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 24, 2023The p.Ala317_Glu324dup variant in HPS4 has been reported in 1 individual with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 4 (PMID: 11836498, 31898847) and has been identified in 0.008% (9/113628) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs281865164). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 4129) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by OMIM and as a variant of uncertain significance by Invitae. This variant is a duplication of 8 amino acids at position 317 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. It is unclear if this deletion will impact the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala317_Glu324dup variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM4, PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 08, 2023Variant summary: HPS4 c.949_972dup24 (p.Ala317_Glu324dup) results in an in-frame duplication that is predicted to duplicate 8 amino acids into the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 251226 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in HPS4 causing Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (4e-05 vs 0.00052), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.949_972dup24 has been reported in the literature in related heterozygous individuals affected with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome without a second variant identified (Suzuki_2002). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11836498). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Both submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 20, 2021This variant, c.949_972dup, results in the insertion of 8 amino acid(s) to the HPS4 protein (p.Ala317_Glu324dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HPS4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4129). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
