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]

OTC Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.15962441 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.6, offset of 6, new splice context is: atgGTcaga. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant X-38352773-GGTAA-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-38352773-GGTAA-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 97315.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
