Genes affected
NPC1 (HGNC:7897): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) This gene encodes a large protein that resides in the limiting membrane of endosomes and lysosomes and mediates intracellular cholesterol trafficking via binding of cholesterol to its N-terminal domain. It is predicted to have a cytoplasmic C-terminus, 13 transmembrane domains, and 3 large loops in the lumen of the endosome - the last loop being at the N-terminus. This protein transports low-density lipoproteins to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where they are hydrolized and released as free cholesterol. Defects in this gene cause Niemann-Pick type C disease, a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by over accumulation of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in late endosomal/lysosomal compartments.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 17, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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 NPC1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552715). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick type C (PMID: 11545687, 27366019, 27549128). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs753768576, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 927 of the NPC1 protein (p.Ala927Val). -
Niemann-Pick disease, type C Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 16, 2024Variant summary: NPC1 c.2780C>T (p.Ala927Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251354 control chromosomes. c.2780C>T has been reported in the literature as homozygous or in compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic variant in multiple individuals affected with Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (Meiner_2001, Lee_2016, Cervera-Gaviria_2016, Hwang_2023). This variant has also been shown to segregate with disease in at least two families (Meiner_2001, Lee_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27549128, 32222928, 36636588, 27366019, 11545687). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552715). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
