Description

This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (PMID: 8829665, 9610619, 17041896, 25433810). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg320*) in the OTC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in OTC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10946359, 16786505). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 97371). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: OTC c.958C>T (p.Arg320X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 183266 control chromosomes. c.958C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency (e.g. Gobin-Limballe_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
