Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000531.6(OTC):​c.604C>G​(p.His202Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H202P) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 13 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_000531.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrX-38403681-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 97267.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.983
• PP5: Variant X-38403681-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-38403681-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 949644.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.His202 amino acid residue in OTC. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9266388, 9501271, 17334707, 25433810, 30285816). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt OTC protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 949644). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with OTC-related conditions (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 202 of the OTC protein (p.His202Asp). -
