Description

Variant summary: NPC1 c.1672G>A (p.Ala558Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 4e-06 in 251264 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1672G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Niemann-Pick Disease Type C and and cerebellar ataxia (examples: Connemann_2012, Stampfer_2013, Schicks_2013, and Topcu_2017). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22269206, 23427322, 23433426, 28808920). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic.
