Genes affected

NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 171 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 18 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.0917 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.706 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe early infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, late infantile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, juvenile neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease type C, severe perinatal form, Niemann-Pick disease type C, adult neurologic onset, Niemann-Pick disease, type C1.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.991
• PP5: Variant 18-23541108-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-23541108-T-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 370184.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
