Genes affected

GLDC (HGNC:4313): (glycine decarboxylase) Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The protein encoded by this gene is the P protein, which binds to glycine and enables the methylamine group from glycine to be transferred to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu575*) in the GLDC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GLDC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16601880). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 27362913). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553781). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The E575X variant in the GLDC gene has been reported previously, in the compound heterozygous state along with a missense variant, in an individual with a suspected diagnosis of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (Coughlin et al., 2017). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The E575X variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret E575X as a pathogenic variant. -
