Description

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 99 of the NPC2 protein (p.Cys99Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358264, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick Type C (PMID: 15937921, 22676771). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21458). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NPC2 function (PMID: 15937921). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
