Invitae RCV000022372 SCV000632520 pathogenic Renal carnitine transport defect 2024-01-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 440 of the SLC22A5 protein (p.Thr440Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs72552732, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with primary carnitine deficiency (PMID: 12210323, 16652335, 16830263, 20574985, 21922592, 24997454). This variant is also known as c.1540C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25416). 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 SLC22A5 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC22A5 function (PMID: 12210323, 21922592). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000022372 SCV000916083 pathogenic Renal carnitine transport defect 2017-04-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Across a selection of the literature, the SLC22A5 c.1319C>T (p.Thr440Met) missense variant has been reported in ten individuals with systemic primary carnitine deficiency, including in one in a homozygous state, in eight in a compound heterozygous state, and in one in a heterozygous state (Lamhonwah et al. 2002; Amat di San Filippo et al. 2006; Li et al. 2010). The variant is also found in three unaffected heterozygotes. The p.Thr440Met variant is reported at a frequency of 0.00003 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium based on two alleles in an area of good coverage, so the variant is presumed to be rare. Functional studies performed on cultured patient skin fibroblasts and in CHO cells were performed to evaluate carnitine uptake and transport levels compared to wildtype. The p.Thr440Met variant was found to have carnitine transport level that was less than 10% of wildtype (Amat di San Filippo et al. 2006). Lamhonwah et al. (2002) reported that the carnitine uptake values ranged from 2.8% in a patient homozygous for the variant to 20% in a compound heterozygote, in comparison to controls. Based on the collective evidence, the p.Thr440Met variant is classified as pathogenic for systemic primary carnitine deficiency. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000022372 SCV001156680 pathogenic Renal carnitine transport defect 2018-07-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The SLC22A5 c.1319C>T; p.Thr440Met variant (rs72552732), is reported in the literature in a homozygous or compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with primary carnitine deficiency (Angelini 2015, Frigeni 2017, Lamhonwah 2002, Li 2010, Thompson 2018, Wattanasirichaigoon 2006) and cardiomyopathy (Papadopoulou-Legbelou 2017). This variant is reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 25416), and is found in the non-Finnish European population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0027% (3/111718 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Functional analyses of the variant protein shows impaired carntitine transport (Amat di San Filippo 2006). The threonine at codon 440 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Amat di San Filippo C et al. Pharmacological rescue of carnitine transport in primary carnitine deficiency.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000022372 SCV001478728 pathogenic Renal carnitine transport defect 2021-01-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: SLC22A5 c.1319C>T (p.Thr440Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Major facilitator superfamily domain (IPR020846) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251494 control chromosomes. c.1319C>T has been widely reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Systemic Primary Carnitine Deficiency and has been subsequently cited by others (example, Lamhonwah_2002, Wattanasirichaigoon_2006, Amat_2006, Rose_2012, Li_2010, Angelini_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (example, Lamhonwah_2002). The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal carnitine uptake in skin fibroblasts from a homozygous affected individual. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
