ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000144368 SCV000602611 pathogenic Wilson disease 2022-03-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The ATP7B c.2336G>A; p.Trp779Ter variant (rs137853283) is reported in the literature as one of the most common variants in a Wilson disease cohort study (Vrabelova 2005), and has been described in at least one individual who was homozygous for the variant (Waldenstrom 1996). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 156284), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0039% (11/280818 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Vrabelova S et al.

Invitae RCV000144368 SCV000813134 pathogenic Wilson disease 2024-01-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp779*) in the ATP7B gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ATP7B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10441329, 16283883). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Wilson disease (PMID: 8938442, 23982005; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 156284). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000144368 SCV000916619 pathogenic Wilson disease 2017-11-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The ATP7B c.2336G>A (p.Trp779X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent ATP7B protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. This variant was found in 8/246088 control chromosomes (gnomAD) at a frequency of 0.0000325, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic ATP7B variant (0.0054006). Multiple compound heterozygote and homozygote WD pts have been reported via publications (Vrabelova_2005, Moller_2011). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002453462 SCV002737672 pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2017-06-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.W779* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2336G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the ATP7B gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2336. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 8. This mutation was detected in one homozygous individual with a clinical diagnosis of Wilson disease, who presented at age 18 with moderate neurologic disease (Waldenström E et al. Genomics, 1996 Nov;37:303-9). In two cohorts of individuals with Wilson disease, this mutation was found in greater than 10 alleles; however, complete genotype information was not provided (Gromadzka G et al. Clin. Genet., 2005 Dec;68:524-32; Vrabelova S et al. Mol. Genet. Metab. Jun;86:277-85). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
