Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPM3PP4_ModeratePP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1358G>A variant in ACADVL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of arginine by glutamine at amino acid 453 (p.Arg453Gln). This variant has been identified in several individuals with a phenotype highly specific for very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency, at least three patients displayed beta oxidation flux of <20% of normal and at least two patients had abnormal newborn screen followed by plasma acylcarnitine analysis consistent with VLCAD deficiency (PP4_Moderate, PMIDs 20060901, 30194637, 33986768). Of those individuals, at least one was presumed compound heterozygous for this variant and a pathogenic ACADVL variant (PMID:33986768, PM3 0.5 points). At least two individuals were homozygous for the variant (PMID:30194637, 33986768, PM3 1 point) (PM3). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00008 in the African population, which is lower than the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.974, which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to ACADVL function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel: PM2_Supporting, PM3, PP3, PP4_Moderate (ACADVL VCEP specifications version 1; approved November 9, 2021).

Genes affected
ACADVL (HGNC:92): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase very long chain) The protein encoded by this gene is targeted to the inner mitochondrial membrane where it catalyzes the first step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. This acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase is specific to long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids. A deficiency in this gene product reduces myocardial fatty acid beta-oxidation and is associated with cardiomyopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The variant was observed in two patients. The first patient is a 31-year-old Serbian woman who from non-consanguineous healthy parents who developed severe progressive fatigue during normal physical activities at age 26. CK level was 3180 IU/L, AST 344 (IU/L), and ALT 325 (IU/L). The cardiac evaluation and forced vital capacity were normal. During exacerbations, she could not walk on her toes and heels and had difficulties getting up from a squatting position. Through the course of the disease, CK levels varied between 90 and 9000 IU/L, and higher levels, paralleling clinical worsening. The second patient, sister of previous patient, 33-year-old, complained of mild fatigue during normal physical activities. On neurological examination, she had mild proximal weakness in her legs (MRC 5-/5) and CK was 67 U/L. Needle EMG showed spontaneous activities at rest and myopathic pattern during activation. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 453 of the ACADVL protein (p.Arg453Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs138058572, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (PMID: 9973285, 20060901; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374123). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ACADVL protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
