Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Aug 08, 2024 | Variant summary: CPT1A c.1436C>T (p.Pro479Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Choline/carnitine acyltransferase domain (IPR039551) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251490 control chromosomes (gnomAD), however the variant was reported at a much higher frequency in certain Northern populations (e.g. in the Inuit), and it was reported to be the major allele in Greenlanders, with a frequency of 0.73 (Rajakumar_2009), which suggests that the variant is a benign polymorphism. On the other hand, a clinical trial demonstrated that children homozygous for P479L had impaired fasting tolerance, resulting in hypoketotic hypoglycemia in response to prolonged fasting, though not all subjects developed hypoglycemia at the end of the testing period (Gillingham_2011). In addition, the variant was reported in homozygous infants affected with neonatal hypoglycemia, however, not all homozygotes developed clinical symptoms (Greenberg_2009). Additionally, a large cohort of Inuit newborns, found that neonatal hypoglycemia (NH) was reported in 22% of P479L homozygotes, and 19.8% of P479L heterozygotes, while only in 4.8% of non-carrier newborns (Collins_2020). Some studies also proposed that the variant might be associated with elevated infant mortality rates in populations where the variant is frequent (Greenberg_2009, Collins_2011, Gessner_2016). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with an elevated risk of disease. Publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated that the variant resulted in partially decreased enzymatic activity, with a significant decrease in sensitivity to inhibition by malonyl-CoA, which might somewhat ameliorate the decreased catalytic capacity (Brown_2001); in addition, fibroblasts from several homozygous individuals demonstrated reduced enzyme activity (e.g. Brown_2001, Greenberg_2009). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19217814, 11441142, 20696606, 21763168, 32088118, 19181627, 32561900, 26820065, 34131458). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65644). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant seems to cause a partial loss of enzyme activity, resulting in a hypomorphic allele with reduced penetrance, and therefore was classified as pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 20, 2024 | This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 479 of the CPT1A protein (p.Pro479Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs80356779, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with CPT1 deficiency (PMID: 19217814, 20301700, 20696606). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65644). 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 CPT1A protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CPT1A function (PMID: 11441142). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
not provided Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Apr 08, 2024 | Common variant in individuals with CPT1A deficiency from the Inuit and Alaska Native populations (PMID: 20301700); High frequency of P479L homozygotes in certain populations indicates that under normal circumstances individuals with this genotype are rarely symptomatic. However, children homozygous for P479L have shown abnormal metabolic response to prolonged fasting and may have an increased risk for infant mortality (PMID: 21763168, 20696606, 23090344); Expression of P479L in COS cells found that it is associated with reduced CPT1A enzyme activity compared to wild type (PMID: 11441142); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26010953, 23757202, 20696606, 27341449, 35944424, 28125087, 25449608, 22045927, 19217814, 20843525, 19181627, 23090344, 27127449, 26820065, 21763168, 28611031, 30996616, 32561900, 34295859, 20301700, 11441142) - |

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Aug 25, 2021 | The c.1436C>T (p.P479L) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 11) of the CPT1A gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1436, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 479 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.003% (9/282900) total alleles studied. This mutation is a prevalent mutation in Inuit and Alaska Native populations, commonly identified in the homozygous state (Brown, 2001; Rajakumar, 2009; Greenberg, 2009; Collins, 2010; Clemente, 2014). Some homozygous infants demonstrate impaired fasting intolerance (Gillingham, 2011) and increased risk of infant mortality (Gessner, 2016). CPT1 activity in fibroblasts from homozygous individuals demonstrated reduced activity compared to controls between 2-16% (Brown, 2001; Greenberg, 2009). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. - |
CPT1A-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Sep 20, 2024 | The CPT1A c.1436C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro479Leu. This variant has been reported at a high frequency in Alaskan native and other arctic populations (Greenberg et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19217814; Clemente et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25449608). The p.Pro479Leu amino acid substitution has been shown to reduce enzyme activity to ~20% of normal (Brown et al. 2001, PubMed ID: 11441142). Patients with carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) 1A deficiency due to homozygosity for the c.1436C>T variant tend to be clinically unaffected or present with a relatively mild clinical course that primarily includes impaired fasting tolerance and potentially hypoketotic hypoglycemia (Greenberg et al. 2009, PubMed ID: 19217814; Gillingham et al. 2011, PubMed ID: 21763168; Clemente et al. 2014, PubMed ID: 25449608). Affected females have been reported to develop maternal acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) (Greenberg et al. 2009, PubMed ID: 19217814). This variant has been associated with increased risk for infant mortality (Gessner et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20937660). Taken together, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. - |
