RCV003781118 | SCV004570131 | likely pathogenic | Niemann-Pick disease, type B; Niemann-Pick disease, type A | 2023-08-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 453 of the SMPD1 protein (p.Ala453Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. 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. This variant is also known as A451D. This missense change has been observed in individuals with Niemann-Pick disease (PMID: 19050888, 27884455). |
