Genes affected
AGL (HGNC:321): (amylo-alpha-1, 6-glucosidase, 4-alpha-glucanotransferase) This gene encodes the glycogen debrancher enzyme which is involved in glycogen degradation. This enzyme has two independent catalytic activities which occur at different sites on the protein: a 4-alpha-glucotransferase activity and a amylo-1,6-glucosidase activity. Mutations in this gene are associated with glycogen storage disease although a wide range of enzymatic and clinical variability occurs which may be due to tissue-specific alternative splicing. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Glycogen storage disease type III Pathogenic:7Other:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017The AGL c.18_19delGA (p.Gln6HisfsTer20) variant, also referred to as c.17_18delAG, results in a frameshift, and is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. The p.Gln6HisfsTer20 variant has been reported in at least three studies in which it is found in a total of 17 patients with glycogen storage disease type III, including in one in a homozygous state, in three in a compound heterozygous state, and in 13 in a heterozygous state where a second variant was not identified (Shen et al. 1996; Goldstein et al. 2010; Hobson-Webb et al. 2010). The p.Gln6HisfsTer20 variant was absent from 20 controls, but is reported at a frequency of 0.00009 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the evidence and the potential impact of frameshift variants, the p.Gln6HisfsTer20 variant is classified as likely pathogenic for glycogen storage disease type III. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 16, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln6Hisfs*20) in the AGL gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AGL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19299494). This variant is present in population databases (rs113994127, gnomAD 0.008%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with glycogen storage disease III (PMID: 8755644, 20490926, 20648714). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 195097). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Dec 04, 2019NM_000642.2(AGL):c.18_19delGA(Q6Hfs*20) is classified as likely pathogenic in the context of glycogen storage disease type III. Sources cited for classification include the following: PMID 20648714 and 8755644. Classification of NM_000642.2(AGL):c.18_19delGA(Q6Hfs*20) is based on the following criteria: The variant causes a premature termination codon that is expected to be targeted by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and is reported in individuals with the relevant phenotype. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
Glycogen storage disease IIIb Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 30, 2017Variant summary: The AGL c.18_19delGA (p.Gln6Hisfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent AGL protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.3216_3217delGA/p.Glu1072fs). This variant is absent from 121356 control chromosomes (ExAC dataset). This variant has been reported homozygously and in compound heterozygosity in patients with clinically and biochemically confirmed dx of GSD IIIb (Goldstein_GeneticsMed_2010). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as "likely pathogenic/pathogenic". Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
