Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_003560.4(PLA2G6):c.238G>A(p.Ala80Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000372 in 1,613,066 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A80S) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 80 of the PLA2G6 protein (p.Ala80Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908685, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of PLA2G6-related conditions (PMID: 16783378, 22934738, 30772976, 34622992). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6202). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PLA2G6 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect PLA2G6 function (PMID: 26755131). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect, as A80T fails to restore wild type protein function and results in significant deficits in neurological function in flies (Mori et al., 2019); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22934738, 30772976, 18799783, 19138334, 16783378, 26755131, 34622992, 35911906, 27196560, 31548400) -
PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration Pathogenic:1
The p.Ala80Thr variant in PLA2G6 has been reported in 5 individuals with PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration (PMID: 16783378, 19138334, 27196560, 30772976, 34622992), segregated with disease in 2 individuals from 1 family (PMID: 30772976), and has been identified in 0.005% (1/18286) of East Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs121908685). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 6202) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by GeneDx and OMIM and as a variant of uncertain significance by Mayo Clinic Laboratories (Mayo Clinic) and Invitae. Of the 5 affected individuals, 1 of those was a homozygote, and 1 was a compound heterozygote that carried a reported pathogenic variant in trans, which increases the likelihood that the p.Ala80Thr variant is pathogenic (VariationID: 30371; PMID: 27196560, 30772976). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Ala80Thr variant may slightly impact protein function (PMID: 31548400). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_supporting, PP1, PM3_strong, PS3_supporting (Richards 2015). -
