Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr890*) in the NPC1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NPC1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9211850). This variant is present in population databases (rs780592540, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Niemann-Pick Type C (PMID: 11349231). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495788). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
