Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP3PM2_SupportingPM3PP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000152.5:c.1402A>T variant in GAA is a missense variant predicted tocause substitution of isoleucine by phenylalanine at amino acid 468 (p.Ile468Phe). This variant has been identified in at least four unrelated individuals described as having Pompe disease, including two patients with LOPD receiving ERT (PMID:37701327, 25037089). One of these patients has documented deficiency of GAA in DBS. One individual is part of a cohort of patients with LOPD receiving ERT, although GAA enzyme is not reported (PMID:37701327). This meets criteria for PP4_moderate. This variant has been reported in compound heterozygosity (phase unknown) in three unrelated patients with the common splice site variant c.-32-13T>G, meeting criteria for PM3. It has also been reported in one individual with confirmed deficient GAA in DBS, muscle, and skin fibroblast with no second variant reported on sequencing or deletion/duplication analysis (PMID:25037089). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v4.0.0 is 0.00002 (1/59986 alleles) in the Admixed American population, which is lower than the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP’s threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.001), meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.747, which meets the threshold of 0.7, evidence that correlates with impact to GAA function (PP3). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 269826), 1-star review status) with 9 submitters classifying the variant as likely pathogenic (1) and uncertain significance (8). 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): PP4_moderate, PM3, PM2_supporting, PP3.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert Panel on December 19, 2023).

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]

The p.Ile468Phe variant in GAA has been reported in two individuals with glycogen storage disease II (PMID: 25037089) and has been identified in 0.013% (2/15414) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs886043148). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar as a VUS by Counsyl and EGL Genetic Diagnostics (VariationID: 285589). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. The phenotype of an individual heterozygous for this variant is highly specific for glycogen storage disease II based on GAA enzyme activity being <10% of wild type, consistent with disease (PMID: 25037089). Additionally, the presence of this variant in combination with reported pathogenic variant c.-32-13T>G (VariationID: 4027, PMID: 25037089) and in an individual with glycogen storage disease II increases the likelihood that the p.Ile468Phe variant is pathogenic. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PP3, PM3_supporting, PP4 (Richards 2015). -

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 468 of the GAA protein (p.Ile468Phe). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Pompe disease (PMID: 25037089, 30564623, 31086307, 31342611). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 285589). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GAA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
