Genes affected
CYP27A1 (HGNC:2605): (cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1) This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This mitochondrial protein oxidizes cholesterol intermediates as part of the bile synthesis pathway. Since the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids is the major route for removing cholesterol from the body, this protein is important for overall cholesterol homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a rare autosomal recessive lipid storage disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Cholestanol storage disease Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 29, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe222Leufs*13) in the CYP27A1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CYP27A1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9392430, 10775536, 26937392). This variant is present in population databases (rs755532803, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CYP27A1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 498394). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 23, 2018A variant that is likely pathogenic has been identified in the CYP27A1 gene. The c.666_678del13 variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The c.666_678del13 variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Phenylalanine 222, changes this amino acid to a Leucine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 4 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Phe222LeufsX13. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Furthermore, the c.666_678del13 variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. -
