Genes affected
GAA (HGNC:4065): (alpha glucosidase) This gene encodes lysosomal alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple intermediate forms and the mature form of the enzyme. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 03, 2017Variant summary: The GAA c.324T>C (p.Cys108Cys) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide causing a synonymous change and 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may affect multiple ESE sites. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 86202/117014 control chromosomes (32095 homozygotes) at a frequency of 0.7366811, indicating the C allele is the major allele. This frequency is approximately 175 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic GAA variant (0.0042205), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign. Taken together, this variant has been classified as benign. -
