Genes affected

COPA (HGNC:2230): (COPI coat complex subunit alpha) In eukaryotic cells, protein transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi compartments is mediated in part by non-clathrin-coated vesicular coat proteins (COPs). Seven coat proteins have been identified, and they represent subunits of a complex known as coatomer. The subunits are designated alpha-COP, beta-COP, beta-prime-COP, gamma-COP, delta-COP, epsilon-COP, and zeta-COP. The alpha-COP, encoded by COPA, shares high sequence similarity with RET1P, the alpha subunit of the coatomer complex in yeast. Also, the N-terminal 25 amino acids of alpha-COP encode the bioactive peptide, xenin, which stimulates exocrine pancreatic secretion and may act as a gastrointestinal hormone. Alternative splicing results in multiple splice forms encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_004371.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, COPA
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.836
• PP5: Variant 1-160314104-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-160314104-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 199255.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1}. Variant chr1-160314104-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Autoimmune interstitial lung disease-arthritis syndrome Pathogenic:2 Uncertain:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Aug 10, 2021	This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with glycine at codon 243 of the COPA protein (p.Asp243Gly). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and glycine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autoimmune interstitial lung, joint, and kidney disease (PMID: 25894502). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 199255). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt COPA protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects COPA function (PMID: 25894502). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
