Genes affected
GDF1 (HGNC:4214): (growth differentiation factor 1) This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. Studies in rodents suggest that this protein is involved in the establishment of left-right asymmetry in early embryogenesis and in neural development in later embryogenesis. The encoded protein is translated from a bicistronic mRNA that also encodes ceramide synthase 1. Mutations in this gene are associated with several congenital cardiovascular malformations.

CERS1 (HGNC:14253): (ceramide synthase 1) This gene encodes a ceramide synthase enzyme, which catalyzes the synthesis of ceramide, the hydrophobic moiety of sphingolipids. The encoded enzyme synthesizes 18-carbon (C18) ceramide in brain neurons. Elevated expression of this gene may be associated with increased longevity, while decreased expression of this gene may be associated with myoclonus epilepsy with dementia in human patients. This protein is transcribed from a monocistronic mRNA as well as a bicistronic mRNA, which also encodes growth differentiation factor 1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 08, 2023In 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. 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 GDF1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522571). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital heart disease and/or abnormality of the cardiovascular system (PMID: 26633542, 28991257, 34958143). It is commonly reported in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (PMID: 28991257). This variant is present in population databases (rs374016704, gnomAD 0.9%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 364 of the GDF1 protein (p.Met364Thr). -
Heart, malformation of Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedcurationReproductive Health Research and Development, BGI GenomicsJan 06, 2020NM_001492.4:c.1091T>C in the GDF1 gene has an allele frequency of 0.009 in Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This variant has been reported to be a common cause of congenital heart disease in the Ashkenazi Jewish population and has been found in homozygosity in 10 affected individuals (PMID: 28991257). Additional evidence supports homozygosity for p.Met364Thr in CHD risk among Ashkenazim. p.Met364Thr shows remarkable violation of Hardy Weinberg equilibrium among Ashkenazi CHD cases, (P = 5.5x10-38, 1-df chi-square test with Yates correction). In contrast, among 302 Ashkenazi autism parental controls and 926 additional Ashkenazi adults from an independent cohort without CHD, there were no homozygotes and 12 heterozygotes (two-sided Fisher's Exact P = 2.8x10-9). Pathogenic computational verdict because pathogenic predictions from DANN, DEOGEN2, MutationTaster, REVEL and SIFTT. We interprete this variant as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic.
