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]

Ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency Pathogenic:5
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthJun 26, 2023This variant causes an in-frame deletion of one amino acid (glutamic acid) at codon 273 of the OTC protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in multiple male and female individuals affected with late-onset ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (PMID: 8956045, 17334707, 25433810, 34014557, 35145162). This variant has also been observed de novo in a 1.5 month-old female affected with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (PMID: 17334707). This variant has been identified in 1/183136 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 15, 2024This variant, c.817_819del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the OTC protein (p.Glu273del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs72558452, gnomAD 0.001%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (PMID: 8956045, 17334707, 25433810, 32420033, 34014557, 34014569). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 97337). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 05, 2024Variant summary: OTC c.817_819delGAG (p.Glu273del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove *** amino acids from the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.5e-06 in 183136 control chromosomes. c.817_819delGAG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 97337). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
