Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000298.6(PKLR):c.1436G>A(p.Arg479His) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000595 in 1,614,012 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R479C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 479 of the PKLR protein (p.Arg479His). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 9, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs118204085, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pyruvate kinase deficiency (PMID: 8161798, 15059150). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1510). 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 does not substantially affect PKLR function (PMID: 11960989). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 15059150). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect (damage of natural splice donor site resulting in exon skipping and alteration of kinetic property) (Valentini et al., 2002; Wijk et al., 2004); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a splicing effect; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 8161798, 16704447, 18759866, 15059150, 31028937, 32036089, 34987744, 11960989) -
Pyruvate kinase deficiency of red cells Pathogenic:2
The missense variant p.R479H in PKLR (NM_000298.6) has been reported in homozygous state in affected patients including those of the Amish ancestry (Kedar P et al; Bowman HS et al). The variant has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic. In silico tools predict the variant to be damaging and the residue is conserved across species.For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
