Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2BP4_StrongBS1_Supporting

The NM_020376.4(PNPLA2):c.1408G>A(p.Ala470Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000871 in 1,561,560 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A470V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.037757277).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000112 (17/152250) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000327 (5/15304). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000129. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 12 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. This position pass quality control queck.

Neutral lipid storage myopathy Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingRevvity Omics, RevvityNov 05, 2019- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 30, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 470 of the PNPLA2 protein (p.Ala470Thr). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. 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: 579621). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 23, 2024The c.1408G>A (p.A470T) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 9) of the PNPLA2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1408, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 470 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 19, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32041611) -
