Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 29, 2022The UGT1A1 TATA box commonly has 6 TA repeats; however, there can be 5 TA repeats, 7 TA repeats, or less commonly, 8 and 9 TA repeats (Barbarino 2014). In vitro studies have shown that UGT1A1 promoter expression decreases as the number of TA repeats increases (Beutler 1998). Genotypes that are homozygous for (TA)7, homozygous for (TA)8, or compound heterozygotes for (TA)7, (TA)8, or (TA)9 cause reduced expression of UGT1A1 and are associated with Gilbert syndrome, which is characterized by increased bilirubin levels, and may have a neonatal appearance of hereditary spherocytosis (Bosma 1995, Iolascon 1998, Nikolac 2008, Ostanek 2007). Individuals who are heterozygous for the (TA)7 *28 promoter variant may have an increased risk for drug toxicity when treated with irinotecan (Marcuello 2004, Riera 2018). Individuals who are homozygous for (TA)7 or compound heterozygous for more than 6 TA repeats may experience an increased incidence of atazanavir-associated hyperbilirubinemia (Gammal 2016).

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 01, 2022This variant is located in the TATA box of the UGT1A1 promoter region. Variants altering TATA repeat length from its usual length of 6 TA repeats (aka (TA)6 or UGT1A1*1) are associated with Gilbert syndrome, a mild and often asymptomatic hyperbilirubinemia. This variant is present in population databases (rs34983651, gnomAD 40%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant is known to be associated with Gilbert syndrome. Individuals who are heterozygous for this variant maintain approximately 70% of the residual enzyme activity (PMID: 7565971, 9435989, 16610035, 28520360). Individuals who are homozygous for this variant maintain approximately 30% residual enzyme activity and have elevated total bilirubin levels consistent with Gilbert syndrome (PMID: 7565971, 9435989, 11003624, 26467199). Compound heterozygosity for this variant and a pathogenic UGT1A1 coding variant may result in a more pronounced enzyme deficiency, higher total serum bilirubin levels, and a clinical presentation similar to Crigler-Najjar syndrome (PMID: 9639672, 11370628). This variant is also known as (TA)7 or UGT1A1*28. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12275). Studies have shown that this variant alters UGT1A1 gene expression (PMID: 9639672). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The presence of this variant results in reduced excretion of irinotecan metabolites, which leads to increased active irinotecan metabolites in the blood.
