NM_005629.4:c.644+9G>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP7BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_005629.4:c.644+9G>A variant in SLC6A8 is in the region of the donor splice site of intron 3. This variant was reported in a female patient with intellectual disability (LOVD, https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/SLC6A8; individual #00185850) but details of biochemical testing or brain MRS are not available (PMID:20717164). The computational splicing predictors SpliceAI and varSEAK suggest that the variant has no impact on splicing (BP4). This is also supported by the reported results of 5 different predictors (Netgene2, Fruitfly (i.e. NNSplice), Splice predictor, Genscan W, FSplice) (PMID 20717164). PhyloP100 way score for this intronic variant is 0.35, which is below the threshols of 2.0, indicating that this nucleotide is not highly conserved (BP7). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.0001061 in the African population. This allele frequency is between the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s allele frequency thresholds for PM2 (<0.00002) and BS1 (>0.0002). Therefore, neither code is met. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 416004) In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for X-linked creatine transporter deficiency. SLC6A8-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP (Specifications verion 1.1.0): BP4. BP7.This classification was approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on Jan 12, 2023).

Genes affected
SLC6A8 (HGNC:11055): (solute carrier family 6 member 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane protein whose function is to transport creatine into and out of cells. Defects in this gene can result in X-linked creatine deficiency syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
