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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.03952431 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.8, offset of -24, new splice context is: cagGTgccc. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-80110841-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-80110841-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1065143.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr17-80110841-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr17-80110841-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Natera, Inc.	Apr 20, 2020	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Apr 07, 2021	Variant summary: GAA c.1551+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing resulting in exon 10 skipping (Bergsma_2015). The variant was absent in 251156 control chromosomes. c.1551+1G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Glycogen Storage Disease, Type 2 (Pompe Disease) (example, Mechler_2012, Bergsma_2015, Figueroa-Bonaparte_2016, Papadopoulos_2017, Poelman_2018, Semplicini_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity in fibroblasts and leukocytes from a patient homozygous for this variant (example, Poelman_2018). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	May 12, 2022	ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1065143). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Pompe disease (PMID: 22133539, 25243733, 28648663). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 10 of the GAA gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in GAA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18425781, 22252923). -
