Description

In each of 2 unrelated patients with Niemann-Pick disease (NPC1; 257220), Carstea et al. (1997) found compound heterozygosity at the NPC1 locus with one of the mutations being a 3467A-G transition, resulting in an asn1156-to-ser amino acid substitution in the NPC1 protein. The authors noted that asn1156 is conserved in human, mouse, C. elegans, and S. cerevisiae orthologs of NPC1.

Description

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1156 of the NPC1 protein (p.Asn1156Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs28942105, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Niemann-Pick type C (PMID: 9211849, 16098014, 17160617, 23430855, 26666848, 27900365, 28710748). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2959). 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 NPC1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Asn1156 amino acid residue in NPC1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with NPC1-related conditions (PMID: 9211849, 16098014, 17160617, 23430855, 26666848, 27900365), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
