Genes affected

PNPLA2 (HGNC:30802): (patatin like phospholipase domain containing 2) This gene encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the first step in the hydrolysis of triglycerides in adipose tissue. Mutations in this gene are associated with neutral lipid storage disease with myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Revvity Omics, Revvity	Sep 24, 2019	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 22, 2023	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 79 of the PNPLA2 protein (p.Arg79Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs371871714, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PNPLA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465788). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PNPLA2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -

The c.235C>T (p.R79W) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 2) of the PNPLA2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 235, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 79 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
