Wilson disease Pathogenic:9
This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 840 of the ATP7B protein (p.Pro840Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Wilson disease (PMID: 10544227, 17272994, 22720273, 23843956). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188879). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ATP7B protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ATP7B function (PMID: 22240481, 22692182). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: The variant of interest affects a conserved nucleotide and results in replacing a small and kink-inducing Proline residue with a bulky and hydrophobic Leucine. 5/5 in silico prediction tools predict deleterious outcome by this substitution. The variant was found in the broad and large cohort of ExAC at an allele frequency of 1/120734 (0.0008%), which does not exceed the maximal expected allele frequency of a disease causing ATP7B allele (0.54%), further supporting a pathogenic nature for the variant. In addition, there are several Wilsons Disease patients reported to have the variant in compound heterozygote module (Amson_2012, Gu_2013, Nicastro_2010). Independent functional studies have shown that the variant results in the impairment of cellular copper transfer (Huster_2012 , Schushan_2012), which is consistent with a disease causing outcome. Considering all evidence, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 840 of the ATP7B protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that the variant results in a significant decrease in copper transport activity and increased catalytic phosphorylation activity (PMID: 22240481). This variant has been observed in many individuals affected with autosomal recessive Wilson disease (PMID: 9671269, 10544227, 17272994, 20958917, 20967755, 22308153, 22720273, 23843956, 24661374, 30232804, 34257423), including in the homozygous state with no evidence of consanguinity (PMID: 30232804) and in the compound heterozygous state with a second pathogenic ATP7B variant (PMID: 10544227, 17272994, 20967755, 22720273, 23843956, 24661374, 30232804). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
The ATP7B c.2519C>T; p.Pro840Leu variant (rs768671894) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with Wilson disease, including multiple individuals that carried a second pathogenic variant (Amson 2012, Gu 2013, Loudianos 1998, Nicastro 2010). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The proline at codon 840 is highly conserved, and functional studies indicate that this variant has substantially decreased copper transport activity (Huster 2012). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Amson M et al. Alagille syndrome and Wilson disease in siblings: a diagnostic conundrum.

The P840L pathogenic variant in the ATP7B gene has been reported previously in several individuals with Wilson disease (Loudiano et al., 1998; Huster et al., 2012; Gu et al., 2013). This variant was not observed in approximately 6300 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The P840L variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In-silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function, and functional studies demonstrate that the P840L variant results in impaired copper uptake (Huster et al., 2012). Missense variants in nearby residues (G836E, D842N, D842Y, G843R) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with Wilson disease (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. We interpret P840L as a pathogenic variant. -
