Genes affected

ALMS1 (HGNC:428): (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) This gene encodes a protein containing a large tandem-repeat domain as well as additional low complexity regions. The encoded protein functions in microtubule organization, particularly in the formation and maintanance of cilia. Mutations in this gene cause Alstrom syndrome. There is a pseudogene for this gene located adjacent in the same region of chromosome 2. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe3795Leufs*38) in the ALMS1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ALMS1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17594715). This variant is present in population databases (rs768759374, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Alström syndrome (PMID: 17594715, 29193673). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551457). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: ALMS1 c.11379delT/p.Phe3793LeufsX38 (also known as c.11385del/p.Phe3795fs in RefSeq) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 248776 control chromosomes. c.11379delT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Alstrom Syndrome With Dilated Cardiomyopathy or inherited retinal degeneration. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
