Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000306753 SCV000825364 uncertain significance Alstrom syndrome 2025-02-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant, c.106_108dup, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid(s) of the ALMS1 protein (p.Ala36dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs746896173, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALMS1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 337007). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Ambry Genetics RCV002402066 SCV002713478 uncertain significance Cardiovascular phenotype 2023-08-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.106_108dupGCG variant (also known as p.A36dup), located in coding exon 1 of the ALMS1 gene, results from an in-frame duplication of GCG at nucleotide positions 106 to 108. This results in the duplication of an extra alanine residue between codons 36 and 37. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Clinical Genomics Laboratory, Stanford Medicine RCV000306753 SCV005062010 uncertain significance Alstrom syndrome 2021-07-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Ala36dup variant in the ALMS1gene has not been previously reported in association with disease. This p.Ala36dup varianthas been identified in 11/23,978 Latino/Admixed American chromosomes (22/170,160 chromosomes overall) by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/).The p.Ala36dup variant occurs in a repetitive region and the ability to detect this type of variation is limited. Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. The p.Ala36dupvariant results in an in-frame insertion of oneamino acid, and as a result, this variant is not expected to disrupt the protein reading frame. These data were assessed using the ACMG/AMP variant interpretation guidelines. In summary, the significance of thep.Ala36dupvariant is uncertain. Additional information is needed to resolve the significance of this variant.[ACMG evidence codes used: BP3]
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003409538 SCV004108089 uncertain significance ALMS1-related disorder 2024-06-10 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The ALMS1 c.103_105dupGCG variant is predicted to result in an in-frame duplication (p.Ala35dup). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.046% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
