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.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.034760743).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000223 (34/152312) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.000722 (30/41564). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000519. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 20 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 3877 of the ALMS1 protein (p.Asn3877Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs377130177, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ALMS1-related disease (PMID: 25468891). This variant is also known as c.11623A>G, p.Asn3875Asp. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550857). 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. -

Reported in the presence of two other ALMS1 variants, phase unknown, in a patient of Puerto Rican background with congenital hearing loss, retinitis pigmentosa, delalyed walking, and a clinical diagnosis of Usher syndrome type I (PMID: 25468891); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as p.(N3875D); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25468891) -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
