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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_000170.3

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0134238005).

BP6

Variant 9-6588665-T-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr9-6588665-T-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 462857.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00121 (185/152280) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.00433 (180/41548). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00381. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 89 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
