Genes affected
AGXT (HGNC:341): (alanine--glyoxylate aminotransferase) This gene is expressed only in the liver and the encoded protein is localized mostly in the peroxisomes, where it is involved in glyoxylate detoxification. Mutations in this gene, some of which alter subcellular targetting, have been associated with type I primary hyperoxaluria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The frameshift c.33dup (p.Lys12GlnfsTer156) variant in AGXT gene has been previously reported in multiple individuals affected with Primary Hyperoxaluria (Rumsby et al., 2004; Mbarek et al. 2017). This variant is also known as 33_34insC. This variant has been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. Functional analysis shows that this variant results in <10% of normal activity, furhter affecting AGXT function (Rumsby et al. 2004). In absence of another reportable variant in AGXT gene, the molecular diagnosis is not confirmed. -

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.016%). This variant was predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000140583). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys12Glnfs*156) in the AGXT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AGXT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19479957). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with primary hyperoxaluria (PMID: 15327387, 19479957, 25629080, 27135212). This variant is also known as 33_34insC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140583). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The AGXT c.33dupC variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys12Glnfs*156). This variant has been reported to be pathogenic for primary hyperoxaluria (Mayordomo-Colunga et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 20549407). This variant is reported in 0.026% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-241808307-A-AC). Frameshift variants in AGXT are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: AGXT c.33dupC (p.Lys12GlnfsX156) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 30572 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in AGXT causing Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1 (0.00047 vs 0.0024), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.33dupC has been reported in the literature in a multiple affected individuals with Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1 (Rumsby_2004, Mbarek_2017). 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 (Rumsby 2004). A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Molecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne Hospital
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change in AGXT is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon, p.(Lys12Glnfs*156), in biologically relevant exon 4/11 leading to nonsense-mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism. The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v3.1 is 0.02% (1/4,750 alleles) in the South Asian population, which is consistent with recessive disease. The variant is one of the most commonly reported pathogenic variants in AGXT. It has been identified in the homozygous state and compound heterozygous with a second pathogenic variant in multiple individuals with clinical/biochemical diagnosis of primary hyperoxaluria (PMID: 15110324, 20301460). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PVS1, PM3_Strong, PM2_Supporting. -
