The variant received 1 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PM2BP4

The NM_001713.3(BHMT):c.532G>A (p.Gly178Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000041 (AC=6) in the gnomAD database across 1,461,862 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.00000084. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 9.60). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.G178C: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 3480583, 1 star)

Genes affected
BHMT (HGNC:1047): (betaine--homocysteine S-methyltransferase) This gene encodes a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. Defects in this gene could lead to hyperhomocyst(e)inemia, but such a defect has not yet been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
DMGDH (HGNC:24475): (dimethylglycine dehydrogenase) This gene encodes an enzyme involved in the catabolism of choline, catalyzing the oxidative demethylation of dimethylglycine to form sarcosine. The enzyme is found as a monomer in the mitochondrial matrix, and uses flavin adenine dinucleotide and folate as cofactors. Mutation in this gene causes dimethylglycine dehydrogenase deficiency, characterized by a fishlike body odor, chronic muscle fatigue, and elevated levels of the muscle form of creatine kinase in serum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 points.

PM2
Very rare in gnomAD for AR/unknown gene (popmax AF < threshold/10) — PM2; GnomAD popmax AF = 0.00000084 — very rare for unknown gene (threshold 0.001) — PM2 moderate.
BP4
Computational evidence supports benign — no pathogenic computational or splicing signal (BP4); Splicing verdict: benign (Strong).; Germline computational verdict: benign (Supporting).
