Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV002568858 SCV003439606 pathogenic Niemann-Pick disease, type B; Niemann-Pick disease, type A 2023-09-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 363 of the SMPD1 protein (p.Leu363Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SMPD1 function (PMID: 34273913). 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 SMPD1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1173970). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick disease (PMID: 27338287, 34273913).
Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM RCV004789656 SCV005400681 pathogenic Niemann-Pick disease, type B 2023-06-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The missense c.1088T>G (p.Leu363Arg) variant in the SMPD1 gene has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick disease. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SMPD1 function (Deshpande, Dipti et al., 2021). The variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. It is submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic. The amino acid Leucine at position 363 is changed to a Arginine changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Multiple lines of computational evidence (SIFT – Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid Leucinein SMPD1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
