This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 9 of the ALPK3 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs762110595, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with severe pediatric cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26846950). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 548939). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 10 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 26846950). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The c.4736-1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide before coding exon 10 of the ALPK3 gene. This variant has been detected in the heterozygous state in individuals with feature consistent with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (van Lint FHM et al. Neth Heart J, 2019 Jun;27:304-309; Herkert JC et al. Am Heart J, 2020 Jul;225:108-119; Ambry internal data). This variant has also been identified in the homozygous state and/or in conjunction with other ALPK3 variant(s) in individual(s) with features consistent with severe, early-onset cardiomyopathy (Almomani R et al. J Am Coll Cardiol, 2016 Feb;67:515-25; Grutters LA et al. Circ Genom Precis Med, 2023 Oct;16:493-495). RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing leading to skipping of coding exon 10 (Almomani R et al. J Am Coll Cardiol, 2016 Feb;67:515-25). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
