Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001833525 SCV003524994 pathogenic Cholestanol storage disease 2022-09-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 379475). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (PMID: 28623566, 33414089). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs111570247, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 8 of the CYP27A1 gene. While this variant is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it likely alters RNA splicing and results in a disrupted protein product.
Ambry Genetics RCV004022314 SCV004077984 pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2023-07-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1477-2A>C intronic variant results from an A to C substitution two nucleotides before exon 9 (coding exon 9) of the CYP27A1 gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This allele was reported in one heterozygous individual in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been reported as a compound heterozygous finding in several individuals who were diagnosed with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis either in infancy or as an adult (Chen, 2017; Zhang, 2021). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
