GeneDx RCV000498217 SCV000589564 likely pathogenic not provided 2017-06-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The R591W variant has been reported in association with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (Takano et al., 1999; Guimarães et al., 2002; Jacob et al., 2015). The variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). R591W is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. In summary, we consider this variant to be likely pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000808514 SCV000948624 pathogenic Adrenoleukodystrophy 2023-12-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 591 of the ABCD1 protein (p.Arg591Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (PMID: 10190819, 12175782, 24154795, 28503596). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92321). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ABCD1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg591 amino acid residue in ABCD1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7668254, 19129531, 22280810, 23566833). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000498217 SCV001473833 likely pathogenic not provided 2019-12-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The ABCD1 c.1771C>T; p.Arg591Trp variant (rs398123106) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) (Guimaraes 2002, Jacob 2015, Takano 1999). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at codon 591 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Additionally, other amino acid substitutions at this codon (p.Arg591Gln, p.Arg591Leu, p.Arg591Pro) have been reported in individuals with X-ALD and are considered disease-causing (Kemp 2001, Shimozawa 2011, Watkins 1995). Based on available information, the p.Arg591Trp variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Guimaraes CP et al.
