Description

This sequence change affects codon 298 of the LIPA mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the LIPA protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs116928232, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed in individuals with cholesteryl ester storage disease and is estimated to be carried by 40-60% of affected individuals (PMID: 22227072, 23424026, 23485521). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203361). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects LIPA function (PMID: 7759067, 8617513, 9684740). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 8, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 8254026). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: LIPA c.894G>A (p.Gln298Gln) alters a conserved nucleotide in a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site and two predict the variant weakens a 5' donor site. Multiple publications report experimental evidence that this variant disrupts the normal splicing sequence, resulting in alternate splicing and the skipping of exon 8 (e.g. Aslandis_1996, Pagani_1998). Although this has been shown to produce an inactive protein, the variant produces a small proportion (3-5%) of mRNA transcripts which are spliced correctly, resulting in a residual level of enzyme activity (e.g. Aslandis_1996, Pagani_1998). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00091 in 251194 control chromosomes (gnomAD), predominantly at a frequency of 0.0013 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. c.894G>A has been reported in the literature in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in many individuals affected with Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency and has been noted as one of the most common pathogenic variants associated with this disorder (e.g.Fasano_2012, Lipinski_2018, Consuelo-Sanchez_2019, Mayanskiy_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Thirteen assessments for this variant have been submitted to ClinVar after 2014. Twelve submitters classified the variant as pathogenic and one classified it as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
