Genes affected
VPS13A (HGNC:1908): (vacuolar protein sorting 13 homolog A) The protein encoded by this gene may control steps in the cycling of proteins through the trans-Golgi network to endosomes, lysosomes and the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal recessive disorder, chorea-acanthocytosis. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The VPS13A p.Asn259Asp variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs41307461), LOVD 3.0 (classified as likely benign) and in ClinVar (classified as a VUS by Illumina, Athena Diagnostics and Fulgent Genetics and as likely benign by Diagnostic Laboratory, Department of Genetics, University Medical Center Groningen). The variant was also identified in control databases in 705 of 282532 chromosomes (2 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.002495 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: European (non-Finnish) in 567 of 128988 chromosomes (freq: 0.004396), Ashkenazi Jewish in 41 of 10364 chromosomes (freq: 0.003956), Other in 23 of 7206 chromosomes (freq: 0.003192), European (Finnish) in 37 of 25112 chromosomes (freq: 0.001473), African in 18 of 24922 chromosomes (freq: 0.000722) and Latino in 19 of 35392 chromosomes (freq: 0.000537), but not in the East Asian and South Asian populations. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. The p.Asn259 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

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

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
