Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000481.4(AMT):c.664C>T(p.Arg222Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000342 in 1,461,874 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 14/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R222H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Variant summary: AMT c.664C>T (p.Arg222Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aminomethyltransferase, folate-binding domain (IPR006222) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251108 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.664C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals affected with Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia, Azize_2014, Swanson_2015, Coughlin_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters have assessed this variant since 2014: one classified the variant as likely pathogenic and two as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 222 of the AMT protein (p.Arg222Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs781466698, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycine encephalopathy (PMID: 25231368, 26179960, 27362913). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552860). 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 AMT protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
