Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000710056 SCV000965551 pathogenic Adrenoleukodystrophy 2025-01-21 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 660 of the ABCD1 protein (p.Arg660Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with adrenoleukodystrophy or adrenomyeloneuropathy (PMID: 7581394, 7825602, 8892025, 10227685, 12175782, 15811009, 20661612, 23835273, 24480483). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 585302). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ABCD1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ABCD1 function (PMID: 9051655). This variant disrupts the p.Arg660 amino acid residue in ABCD1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with ABCD1-related conditions (PMID: 11438993, 21889498, 21966424), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM RCV000710056 SCV004047497 pathogenic Adrenoleukodystrophy criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The ABCD1 c.1978C>T variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with Adrenoleukodystrophy or adrenomyeloneuropathy (Mallikarjuna et. al., 2019; Matsukawa et. al., 2011) and reported to segregate with disease in a family (Engelen et. al., 2014). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change disrupts ABCD1 enzymatic activity (Yamada et. al., 1997). The p.Arg660Trp variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. The amino acid change p.Arg660Trp in ABCD1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Arg at position 660 is changed to a Trp changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003392550 SCV004120478 pathogenic ABCD1-related disorder 2023-06-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The ABCD1 c.1978C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg660Trp. This variant (also known as C2364T) has been documented causative for X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) (see, for example, Ligtenberg et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7825602; Hung et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23835273; Takano et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10190819). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
