Genes affected

PCCA (HGNC:8653): (propionyl-CoA carboxylase subunit alpha) The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit of the heterodimeric mitochondrial enzyme Propionyl-CoA carboxylase. PCCA encodes the biotin-binding region of this enzyme. Mutations in either PCCA or PCCB (encoding the beta subunit) lead to an enzyme deficiency resulting in propionic acidemia. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

PCCA Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• propionic acidemia

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 6 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-100527736-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-100527736-CT-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 557479.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr704Leufs*4) in the PCCA gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 25 amino acid(s) of the PCCA protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with propionic acidemia (PMID: 11592820). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557479). This variant disrupts a region of the PCCA protein in which other variant(s) (p.Val710Alafs*23) have been determined to be pathogenic (internal data). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
