A heterozygous missense variant in exon 20 of the NPC1 gene that results in the amino acid substitution of Tryptophan for GLycine at codon 992 was detected. The observed variant c.2974G>T (p.Gly992Trp) has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and has a minor allele frequency of 0.002% in the gnomAD databases. The in-silico prediction of the variant are possibly damaging by MutationTaster2, DANN and FATHMM. The variant has been previously reported in patient with NPC1 (PMID: 31506030). In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic. (less)

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 992 of the NPC1 protein (p.Gly992Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358254, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Niemann-Pick disease type C (PMID: 9634529, 11545687, 16778374, 20718790, 26666848, 28222799). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2960). 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.Gly992 amino acid residue in NPC1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11333381, 16126423, 26984608). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. (less)

Greer et al. (1997) mapped the Nova Scotian type of Niemann-Pick disease, also called type D (see 257220), to a 13-cM chromosome segment between D18S40 and D18S66. A gene isolated from this region, NPC1, had been found to be mutated in most patients with Niemann-Pick disease type C. Greer et al. (1998) identified a point mutation within the NPC1 gene (3097G-T, G992W) that showed complete linkage disequilibrium with the Nova Scotian form, confirming that type D is an allelic variant of NPC1.
