Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2PP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.522G>C variant in GAMT is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of a tryptophan by cysteine at amino acid 174 (p.Trp174Cys). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature and results of functional studies are unavailable. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v4.0. is 0.00002227 (1/44900 alleles) in the East Asian population, which lower is than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.0004), meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.813 which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to GAMT function (PP3). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2421360. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for GAMT deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): PP3, PM2_Supporting. (Classification approved by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on December 12, 2023).

Genes affected
GAMT (HGNC:4136): (guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase) The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that converts guanidoacetate to creatine, using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Defects in this gene have been implicated in neurologic syndromes and muscular hypotonia, probably due to creatine deficiency and accumulation of guanidinoacetate in the brain of affected individuals. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 2 and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
GAMT Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency
