Genes affected
ALMS1 (HGNC:428): (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) This gene encodes a protein containing a large tandem-repeat domain as well as additional low complexity regions. The encoded protein functions in microtubule organization, particularly in the formation and maintanance of cilia. Mutations in this gene cause Alstrom syndrome. There is a pseudogene for this gene located adjacent in the same region of chromosome 2. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.

GeneDx
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

p.Glu3840Glu in exon 16 of ALMS1: This variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue, is not located wit hin the splice consensus sequence, and has been identified in 6.48% (622/9602) o f African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.bro adinstitute.org; dbSNP rs35760114). -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: ALMS1 c.11520G>A (alternative name c.11526G>A) affects a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. 3/5 programs in Alamut predict that this variant does not affect normal splicing. This variant was found in 723/118816 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.006085, predominantly observed in African subpopulation in ExAC with MAF of 0.06478 with 21 homozygotes. This frequency exceeds the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0022361), suggesting this variant is benign especially for Africans. This variant, to our knowledge, has not been reported in affected individuals via publications. One clinical laboratory (via ClinVar) classified this variant as benign, without evidence to independently evaluate. Taken together, this variant was classified as benign. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
