Genes affected
 NPY  (HGNC:7955):  (neuropeptide Y) This gene encodes a neuropeptide that is widely expressed in the central nervous system and influences many physiological processes, including cortical excitability, stress response, food intake, circadian rhythms, and cardiovascular function. The neuropeptide functions through G protein-coupled receptors to inhibit adenylyl cyclase, activate mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), regulate intracellular calcium levels, and activate potassium channels. A polymorphism in this gene resulting in a change of leucine 7 to proline in the signal peptide is associated with elevated cholesterol levels, higher alcohol consumption, and may be a risk factor for various metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. The protein also exhibits antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

ACMG classification
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.71). 
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00906 (1380/152288) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0314 (1304/41560). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.03. There are 21 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 613 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. 
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 1380 AD gene.
