Genes affected

GM2A (HGNC:4367): (ganglioside GM2 activator) This gene encodes a small glycolipid transport protein which acts as a substrate specific co-factor for the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase A. Beta-hexosaminidase A, together with GM2 ganglioside activator, catalyzes the degradation of the ganglioside GM2, and other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines. Mutations in this gene result in GM2-gangliosidosis type AB or the AB variant of Tay-Sachs disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.17699257).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000217 (33/152288) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.000746 (31/41562).

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 169 of the GM2A protein (p.Arg169His). This variant is present in population databases (rs104893892, gnomAD 0.09%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GM2A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1350409). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C25"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The c.506G>A (p.R169H) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the GM2A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 506, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 169 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
