This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000152.5:c.1082C>T variant in GAA is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of proline by leucine at amino acid 361 (p.Pro361Leu). This variant has been reported in at least 13 individuals with clinical symptoms consistent with Pompe disease including 6 individuals with documented laboratory values showing deficiency of GAA activity below normal range in leukocytes or <1% activity in fibroblasts or another tissue, many of whom were also reported to be showing improvement on enzyme replacement therapy and/or had specific features reported for infantile onset Pompe disease including cardiomyopathy and motor delay (PMID:21484825, 25139343, 25526786, 26497565, 27344650, 31439017, 31915562) and another patient with features specific for infantile onset Pompe disease, on enzyme replacement therapy (PMID:30023291). Pseudodeficiency variants, c.1726G>A and c.2065G>A, were reported to be absent in at least one of these patients (PMID:25526786) (PP4_Moderate). Of the patients reported with this variant, four are compound heterozygous for the variant and another variant in GAA classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LSD VCEP including c.784G>A (p.Glu262Lys) (PMID:31915562; confirmed in trans by parental DNA testing) and c.1933G>A (p.Asp645Asn) (PMID:26497565, 27344650; phase unknown), c.1935C>A (p.Asp645Glu) (PMID:31439017; phase unknown), and c.2238G>C (p.Trp746Cys) (PMID:35123860; phase unknown). In addition, two homozygotes have been reported (PMID:30023291, 31931849), one of whom was identified by next generation sequencing panel for limb girdle muscle weakness, and not counted due to no report of follow up enzyme studies to confirm diagnosis of Pompe disease (PMID:31931849) (PM3_Strong). Additional patients have been reported with the variant in compound heterozygosity with another variant including c.503G>C (p.Arg168Pro) (PMID:25526786), c.953T>C (p.Met318Thr) (PMID:25139343), c.1309C>T (p.Arg437Cys) (PMID:12601120, 27692865), c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) (PMID:25213570), c.1979G>A (p.Arg660His) (PMID:21484825), and c.1551+1G>C (PMID:16917947). In these cases, the allelic data will be used in the assessment of the second variant and was not applied to PM3 here in order to avoid circular logic. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00006 in the Latino population which is lower than the ClinGen LSD VCEP threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion. When expressed in COS cells and GAA deficient fibroblasts, this variant resulted in <4% wild type GAA activity in three different studies (PMID:12601120, 19862843, 22644586) and showed evidence of abnormal synthesis and processing on Western blot (PMID:22644586) (PS3_Moderate). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.951 which is above the threshold of 0.7, evidence that correlates with impact to GAA function (PP3). Another variant at the same codon, c.1082C>A (p.Pro361Arg) has been reported (PMID:31076647). The classification of p.Pro163Leu will be used in the assessment of p.Pro361Arg and, therefore, PM5 is not applied here. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403712, 2 star review status) with four submitters classifying the variant as pathogenic and two as likely pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP: PM3_Strong, PS3_Moderate, PP4_Moderate, PP3, PM2_Supporting.Classification approved by the ClinGen LSD VCEP on May 16, 2022.

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]

Variant summary: GAA c.1082C>T (p.Pro361Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 249370 control chromosomes. c.1082C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Glycogen Storage Disease, Type 2 (Pompe Disease). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The c.1082C>T (p.Pro361Leu) missense variant is previously reported in the literature and is expected to be causative of disease. This variant has been reported in multiple affected individuals across multiple studies. This variant is classified as Class B, which means potentially less severe (Kroos M et al. Hum Mutat. 2012;33(8):1161-5). Patients with this class of variant are CRIM-positive. This variant involves a highly conserved nucleotide and amino acid. PolyPhen-2, SIFT, and MutationTaster all predict this variant to be deleterious. -

The NM_000152.5:c.1082C>T variant in GAA is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of proline by leucine at amino acid 361 (p.Pro361Leu). This variant has been reported in at least 13 individuals with clinical symptoms consistent with Pompe disease including 6 individuals with documented laboratory values showing deficiency of GAA activity below normal range in leukocytes or <1% activity in fibroblasts or another tissue, many of whom were also reported to be showing improvement on enzyme replacement therapy and/or had specific features reported for infantile onset Pompe disease including cardiomyopathy and motor delay (PMID: 21484825, 25139343, 25526786, 26497565, 27344650, 31439017, 31915562) and another patient with features specific for infantile onset Pompe disease, on enzyme replacement therapy (PMID: 30023291). Pseudodeficiency variants, c.1726G>A and c.2065G>A, were reported to be absent in at least one of these patients (PMID: 25526786) (PP4_Moderate). Of the patients reported with this variant, four are compound heterozygous for the variant and another variant in GAA classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LSD VCEP including c.784G>A (p.Glu262Lys) (PMID: 31915562; confirmed in trans by parental DNA testing) and c.1933G>A (p.Asp645Asn) (PMID: 26497565, 27344650; phase unknown), c.1935C>A (p.Asp645Glu) (PMID: 31439017; phase unknown), and c.2238G>C (p.Trp746Cys) (PMID: 35123860; phase unknown). In addition, two homozygotes have been reported (PMID: 30023291, 31931849), one of whom was identified by next generation sequencing panel for limb girdle muscle weakness, and not counted due to no report of follow up enzyme studies to confirm diagnosis of Pompe disease (PMID: 31931849) (PM3_Strong). Additional patients have been reported with the variant in compound heterozygosity with another variant including c.503G>C (p.Arg168Pro) (PMID: 25526786), c.953T>C (p.Met318Thr) (PMID: 25139343), c.1309C>T (p.Arg437Cys) (PMID: 12601120, 27692865), c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) (PMID: 25213570), c.1979G>A (p.Arg660His) (PMID: 21484825), and c.1551+1G>C (PMID: 16917947). In these cases, the allelic data will be used in the assessment of the second variant and was not applied to PM3 here in order to avoid circular logic. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00006 in the Latino population which is lower than the ClinGen LSD VCEP threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion. When expressed in COS cells and GAA deficient fibroblasts, this variant resulted in <4% wild type GAA activity in three different studies (PMID: 12601120, 19862843, 22644586) and showed evidence of abnormal synthesis and processing on Western blot (PMID: 22644586) (PS3_Moderate). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.951 which is above the threshold of 0.7, evidence that correlates with impact to GAA function (PP3). Another variant at the same codon, c.1082C>A (p.Pro361Arg) has been reported (PMID: 31076647). The classification of p.Pro163Leu will be used in the assessment of p.Pro361Arg and, therefore, PM5 is not applied here. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403712, 2 star review status) with four submitters classifying the variant as pathogenic and two as likely pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP: PM3_Strong, PS3_Moderate, PP4_Moderate, PP3, PM2_Supporting. Classification approved by the ClinGen LSD VCEP on May 16, 2022. -

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 361 of the GAA protein (p.Pro361Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs755253527, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Pompe disease (PMID: 12601120, 16917947, 25213570, 27344650, 30023291). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403712). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GAA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GAA function (PMID: 12601120). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The heterozygous p.Pro361Leu variant in GAA has been reported in at least 15 individuals (including 6 Chinese, 2 Italian, and 1 from the UK) with Glycogen Storage Disease II, segregated with disease in 2 affected siblings from 1 family (PMID: 30023291, 27692865, 26497565, 25526786, 25213570, 25139343, 21484825, 16917947, 12601120, 24169249, 26685070, 17915575), and has also been reported pathogenic by Claritas Genomics and Invitae in ClinVar (Variation ID: 403712). This variant has been identified in 0.006% (2/34496) of Latino chromosomes and 0.005% (1/21462) of European (Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs755253527). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. In vitro functional studies with a minigene assay and COS cells transfected with the variant provide some evidence that the p.Pro361Leu variant may eliminate proteolytically activated GAA and impact GAA activity (PMID: 22644586, 12601120). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. This variant was reported in combination with reported pathogenic variants and in individuals with Glycogen Storage Disease II (PMID: 21484825, 12601120, 26497565, 16917947, 26685070, 30023291, 27692865, 25213570, 25139343). The phenotype of individuals heterozygous for this variant is highly specific for Glycogen Storage Disease II based on reduced GAA activity in relevant tissue (PMID: 21484825, 26497565, 25139343, 12601120). One additional variant at the same position, p.Pro361Arg, has been reported as a VUS in ClinVar (Variation ID: 289367). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS3, PM2, PP3, PP4 (Richards 2015). -
