Genes affected

TTPA (HGNC:12404): (alpha tocopherol transfer protein) This gene encodes a soluble protein that binds alpha-trocopherol, a form of vitamin E, with high selectivity and affinity. This protein plays an important role in regulating vitamin E levels in the body by transporting vitamin E between membrane vesicles and facilitating the secretion of vitamin E from hepatocytes to circulating lipoproteins. Mutations in this gene cause hereditary vitamin E deficiency (ataxia with vitamin E deficiency, AVED) and retinitis pigmentosa. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -20 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.9).
• BP6: Variant 8-63064195-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr8-63064195-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 363558.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr8-63064195-A-G is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (AFR) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.809 is higher than 0.05.

Significance: 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 benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

Variant summary: The TTPA c.663+11T>C variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved intronic nucleotide. One in silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools via Alamut suggest no significant impact on a normal splicing pattern, however the functional studies confirming these predictions are yet to be conducted. This variant is present in EXAC at a frequency of 0.59 (63955/107728control chrs). The variant of interest is cites as Benign by reputable databases/clinical diagnostic laboratories. Taken together, based on the frequency in the general population, the variant was classified as Benign. -
