Renal carnitine transport defect Pathogenic:6
- -
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25347). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with primary carnitine deficiency (PMID: 11715001). This variant is present in population databases (rs72552722, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr4*) in the SLC22A5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC22A5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9916797). -

Variant summary: SLC22A5 c.12C>G (p.Tyr4X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 248560 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.12C>G has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous individuals affected with Carnitine Deficiency and the variant segregated with the disease (examples: Wang_2001 and Frigeni_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (Frigeni_2017). Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
SLC22A5-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The SLC22A5 c.12C>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Tyr4*). This variant was reported in the homozygous state in individuals with primary carnitine deficiency (Wang et al 2001. PubMed ID: 11715001; Frigeni M et al 2017. PubMed ID: 28841266). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-131705676-C-G). Nonsense variants in SLC22A5 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
