Variant summary: PCCA c.1746G>A (p.Ser582Ser) 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. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: One predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. Four predict the variant weakens a 5' donor site. These predictions are supported by a functional study that reported an impact on mRNA splicing (Yang_2004). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 245876 control chromosomes . c.1746G>A has been reported in the literature in a homozygote and compound heterozygote individuals affected with Propionic Acidemia (Yang_2004, Kraus_2012). The homozygote individual was found to have less than 10% PCC activity (Kraus_2012). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change affects codon 582 of the PCCA mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PCCA protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs192171304, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with propionic acidemia (PMID: 15059621, 22033733). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556480). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 19 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 15059621). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant disrupts the c.1746G nucleotide in the PCCA gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 31893529). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
PCCA-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The PCCA c.1746G>A variant is not predicted to result in an amino acid change (p.=). However, this variant is predicted to decrease the strength of a nearby canonical splice donor and may affect splicing (SpliceAI, Jaganathan et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30661751). This variant was reported along with a frameshift variant in an individual with propionic acidemia, and RNA analysis indicated that this variant results in skipping of exon 19 (Yang et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15059621). This variant is reported in 0.013% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. In ClinVar, this variant has conflicting interpretations including uncertain, likely pathogenic, and pathogenic. We interpret this variant to be likely pathogenic. -
