Genes affected
OTC (HGNC:8512): (ornithine transcarbamylase) This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial matrix enzyme. The encoded protein is involved in the urea cycle which functions to detoxify ammonia into urea for excretion. Mutations in this enzyme lead to ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, which causes hyperammonemia. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 14, 2017The A174T variant in the OTC gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. A missense variant at the same codon (A174P) has been reported previously, using alternate nomenclature, as de novo in a female who presented with Reye like" illness with hyperammonemia and orotic aciduria. However, no enzymatic studies were performed to confirm a diagnosis of OTC deficiency (Tsai et al., 1993). The A174T variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The A174T variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret A174T as a variant of uncertain significance." -
