Genes affected

CASR (HGNC:1514): (calcium sensing receptor) The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane G protein-coupled receptor that senses small changes in circulating calcium concentration. The encoded protein couples this information to intracellular signaling pathways that modify parathyroid hormone secretion or renal cation handling, and thus this protein plays an essential role in maintaining mineral ion homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism, and autosomal dominant hypocalcemia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the CASR gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 114 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 10 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.1237 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.8257 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to neonatal severe primary hyperparathyroidism, autosomal dominant hypocalcemia 1, familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia 1, epilepsy, autosomal dominant hypocalcemia, epilepsy, idiopathic generalized, susceptibility to, 8.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.114682615).

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q983R variant (also known as c.2948A>G), located in coding exon 6 of the CASR gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2948. The glutamine at codon 983 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 983 of the CASR protein (p.Gln983Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237766). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CASR-related conditions. -
