Description
In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Met996 amino acid residue in ATP7B. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16088907, 22677543; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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 ATP7B protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ATP7B-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 996 of the ATP7B protein (p.Met996Val).
