Description

Variant summary: ATP7B c.1877G>C (p.Gly626Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the heavy metal-associated domain, copper ion-binding (IPR006122) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 249616 control chromosomes. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in ATP7B causing Wilson Disease (8.8e-05 vs 0.0054), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1877G>C has been reported in the literature on certain occasions in compound heterozygosity with other pathogenic variants (e.g. p.Gly1061Glu, p.His1069Gln), in multiple individuals affected with Wilson Disease (Bost_2012, Braiterman_2014, Coffey_2013, Figus_1995, Ljubic_2016, Loudianos_1999, Todorov_2005, Collins_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function provided conflicting conclusions about the variant effect. Specifically, one study demonstrated the variant to cause partial copper transport activity but normal phosphorylation activity (Huster_2012) while, other studies revealed normal copper transport and trafficking (Braiterman_2014, Hsi_2008). A separate study showed the variant protein retained its ability to interact with COMMD1 but at decreased efficiency (de Bie_2007); however, it is not conclusively established if and how this change could lead to disease. Therefore, these studies do not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (likely pathogenic, n=6; pathogenic, n=1, VUS, n=1). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Description

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 626 of the ATP7B protein (p.Gly626Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs587783299, gnomAD 0.1%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Wilson disease (PMID: 8938442, 9311736, 10544227, 16207219, 18371106, 22677543, 22735241, 24706876, 26799313; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as p.Gly627Ala. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 157930). 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 with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on ATP7B function (PMID: 17919502, 18203200, 22240481, 24706876). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

This missense variant replaces glycine with alanine at codon 626 of the ATP7B protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown conflicting results on the impact of this variant on protein function (PMID: 18203200, 22240481, 24706876). One study showed this variant partially disrupted copper transport but maintained normal phosphorylation activity (PMID: 22240481), while two other studies showed normal copper transport and localization (PMID: 18203200, 24706876). This variant has been reported in many individuals affected with Wilson disease (PMID: 8533760, 8938442, 9311736, 10544227, 16207219, 18371106, 22677543, 22735241, 23518715, 24706876, 26799313, 33640437, 34400371, 36096368). In a number of these individuals, this variant has been determined to be in the compound heterozygous state with another pathogenic variant (PMID: 23518715, 24706876, 26799313, 33640437). These data indicate that this variant contributes to Wilson disease in an autosomal recessive manner. This variant has been identified in 24/280910 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
