Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The highest continental population minor allele frequency for c.547-4C>G in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.7403 in the European non-Finnish population. Note that the minor allele frequency is even higher in the Ashkenazi Jewish (0.77927) and European Finnish (0.75914) populations. These allele frequencies are higher than the ClinGen LSD VCEP’s BA1 threshold (>0.01), meeting this criterion. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92485, two star review status), with 6 submitters classifying the variant as benign. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP: BA1.

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]

Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The highest continental population minor allele frequency for c.547-4C>G in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.7403 in the European non-Finnish population. Note that the minor allele frequency is even higher in the Ashkenazi Jewish (0.77927) and European Finnish (0.75914) populations. These allele frequencies are higher than the ClinGen LSD VCEP's BA1 threshold (>0.01), meeting this criterion. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92485, two star review status), with 6 submitters classifying the variant as benign. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP: BA1. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
