Genes affected
CASR (HGNC:1514): (calcium sensing receptor) The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane G protein-coupled receptor that senses small changes in circulating calcium concentration. The encoded protein couples this information to intracellular signaling pathways that modify parathyroid hormone secretion or renal cation handling, and thus this protein plays an essential role in maintaining mineral ion homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism, and autosomal dominant hypocalcemia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 17, 2023Variant summary: CASR c.220A>C (p.Met74Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251342 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.220A>C has been reported in the literature in an individual with mildly increased serum calcium levels (Dershem_2020). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Dershem_2020), finding reduced expression of the mature protein and reduced plasma membrane localization. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32386559). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Nephrolithiasis/nephrocalcinosis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 07, 2024The p.M74L variant (also known as c.220A>C), located in coding exon 2 of the CASR gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 220. The methionine at codon 74 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
CASR-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 15, 2023The CASR c.220A>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met74Leu. This variant was reported in an individual with elevated serum calcium levels, and in vitro experimental studies suggested this variant impacts protein function (Dershem et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32386559). This variant is reported in 0.0026% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/3-121975962-A-C). An alternative nucleotide change affected the same amino acid (p.Met74Val) has been reported in individuals with hypercalcemia (Vargas-Poussou et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26963950; Mouly et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32347971 ). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Autosomal dominant hypocalcemia 1;C1809471:Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 10, 2023This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 74 of the CASR protein (p.Met74Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs745377913, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with CASR-related disease (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 463920). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CASR function (PMID: 32386559). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
