Genes affected
NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 171 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 18 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.0917 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.706 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Niemann-Pick disease, type C1, Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe early infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, late infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, adult neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, juvenile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe perinatal form.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.01092872).
BP6
Variant 18-23535603-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr18-23535603-C-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 92712.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00251 (382/152228) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.00893 (371/41530). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00818. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 183 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 2 AR gene
