Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Moderate
The NM_000016.6(ACADM):c.425delA(p.Lys142ArgfsTer8) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. K142K) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
ACADM (HGNC:89): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase medium chain) This gene encodes the medium-chain specific (C4 to C12 straight chain) acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase. The homotetramer enzyme catalyzes the initial step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. Defects in this gene cause medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency, a disease characterized by hepatic dysfunction, fasting hypoglycemia, and encephalopathy, which can result in infantile death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in ACADM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16121256, 20434380). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with ACADM-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys142Argfs*8) in the ACADM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
