Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PP3PM2_SupportingPM3_StrongPP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000152.5:c.692+5G>T variant in GAA is located in intron 3 and is predicted to disrupt the 5' donor splice site of the intron. At least 6 individuals have been reported with this variant and late-onset Pompe disease, including individuals with documented GAA enzyme deficiency and symptoms consistent with LOPD and receiving enzyme replacement therapy (PMIDs: 24384324, 26873529,27408821,29181627, 30155607). At least three individuals with confirmed Pompe disease are compound heterozygous for this variant and a second pathogenic variant (phase unconfirmed) including c.1076-22T>G (PMID:27408821 ), c.953T>C (PMIDs: 3015560 and 29181627), and c.482_483del (PMID:26873529) (PM3_strong). One individual with LOPD was reported to have this variant and c.1211A>G, classified as likely pathogenic by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP; however, points were not given for PP4 or PM3 to avoid circular logic as data from this publication were used to support the classification of c.1211A>G (PMID:2438432). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1.0 is 0.00001195 (14/1171164 alleles) in the European non-Finnish population which is lower than the ClinGen LSD VCEP’s threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.001), meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.54 for donor loss, predicting that the variant disrupts the donor splice site of intron 3 of GAA (PP3). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 526532 , 2-star review status) with 4 submitters classifying the variant as pathogenic (n=2) or likely pathogenic (n=2). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for Pompe disease based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert panel (Specifications Version 2.0.0): PP4_moderate, PM3_strong, PM2_supporting, PP3.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert Panel on April 15, 2025) LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA8814966/MONDO:0009290/010

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]
