Genes affected

ABCC8 (HGNC:59): (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the MRP subfamily which is involved in multi-drug resistance. This protein functions as a modulator of ATP-sensitive potassium channels and insulin release. Mutations in the ABCC8 gene and deficiencies in the encoded protein have been observed in patients with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy, an autosomal recessive disorder of unregulated and high insulin secretion. Mutations have also been associated with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type II, an autosomal dominant disease of defective insulin secretion. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

The p.His627MetfsTer20 variant in ABCC8 has been reported in four individuals with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (PMID: 14692646, 30386300, 25584046), and has been identified in 0.003% (36/1180000) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs764613146). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. It is of note that this variant occurs in a homopolymer repeat, which could indicate that it exists as an artifact from sequencing. However, disease-causing variants have been reported in homopolymer regions, so this is not enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (VCV000370909.19) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by multiple submitters. Of the four affected individuals, three were compound heterozygotes that carried a reported pathogenic variants in trans, which increases the likelihood that the p.His627MetfsTer20 variant is pathogenic (PMID: 14692646, 30386300). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.His627MetfsTer20 variant may slightly impact protein function (PMID: 25584046). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 627 and leads to a premature termination codon. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the ABCC8 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His627Metfs*20) in the ABCC8 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ABCC8 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20685672, 23345197). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital hyperinsulinism (PMID: 25584046, 30386300). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370909). 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. -
