Genes affected

ACADM (HGNC:89): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase medium chain) This gene encodes the medium-chain specific (C4 to C12 straight chain) acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase. The homotetramer enzyme catalyzes the initial step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. Defects in this gene cause medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency, a disease characterized by hepatic dysfunction, fasting hypoglycemia, and encephalopathy, which can result in infantile death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.84).

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Variant summary: ACADM c.469-9A>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00074 in 262480 control chromosomes, predominantly within the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0074 in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African control individuals is slightly higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ACADM causing Medium Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency phenotype (0.0054), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.469-9A>G in individuals affected with Medium Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three ClinVar submissions from other clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign/benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
