Genes affected

GCH1 (HGNC:4193): (GTP cyclohydrolase 1) This gene encodes a member of the GTP cyclohydrolase family. The encoded protein is the first and rate-limiting enzyme in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis, catalyzing the conversion of GTP into 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate. BH4 is an essential cofactor required by aromatic amino acid hydroxylases as well as nitric oxide synthases. Mutations in this gene are associated with malignant hyperphenylalaninemia and dopa-responsive dystonia. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described; however, not all variants give rise to a functional enzyme. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

GCH1 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 14-54845767-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-54845767-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 529415.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Sep 27, 2022	The GCH1 c.626+1G>A variant, also referred to as IVS5+1G>A, results in the substitution of a guanine within the consensus splice donor site with an adenine, which may result in splicing defects. Across a selection of the available literature, the c.626+1G>A variant has been identified in a heterozygous state in at least six individuals with dopa-responsive dystonia (PMID: 11486899; PMID: 19491146; PMID: 20937667; PMID: 28958832; PMID: 33875303). The c.626+1G>A variant was also found the asymptomatic father and sister. At least one additional variant, c.626+1G>C, has been reported at the same position in affected individuals (PMID: 24993959; PMID: 35041927). The c.626+1G>A variant is not found in version 2.1.1 or version 3.1.2 of the Genome Aggregation Database. Analysis of cDNA using electrophoresis and additional sequencing demonstrated that this splice variant was associated with skipping exon 5 and a truncated protein product (PMID: 11486899). Based on the available evidence, the c.626+1G>A variant is classified as pathogenic for GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 5 and introduces a new termination codon (PMID: 9749603). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 529415). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with dystonia (PMID: 9749603, 17101830, 19491146). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the GCH1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely disrupts the C-terminus of the protein. -
