Genes affected
SLC19A2 (HGNC:10938): (solute carrier family 19 member 2) This gene encodes the thiamin transporter protein. Mutations in this gene cause thiamin-responsive megaloblastic anemia syndrome (TRMA), which is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by diabetes mellitus, megaloblastic anemia and sensorineural deafness. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

The SLC19A2 c.515G>A (p.Gly172Asp) missense variant has been reported in three studies in which it is found in a total of five probands with thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia syndrome (TRMA) including in two in a homozygous state and in three in a compound heterozygous state (of whom two are siblings) (Labay et al. 1999; Alzahrani et al. 2006; Bergmann et al. 2009). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.00001 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Genome Aggregation Database based on two alleles in a region of good sequence coverage so the variant is presumed to be rare. More than one functional study in cultured cells transfected with variant p.Gly172Asp protein, demonstrated significantly decreased thiamine uptake compared to cells transfected with wild type protein (Balamurugan et al. 2002; Baron et al. 2002; Subramanian et al. 2007). The localization of the variant protein compared to wild type differed between studies. Baron et al. (2002) reports that the p.Gly172Asp variant protein could not be detected under normal physiological conditions, but at lower temperatures was shown to be localized in the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum (compared to wild type located in the cytoplasm and at the plasma membrane), and demonstrated partial N-glycosylation and altered protein folding. Subramanian et al. (2007) reports that the p.Gly172Asp variant protein was absent from the cytoplasmic fraction and shown to be completely retained within the endoplasmic reticulum. Based on the collective evidence, the p.Gly172Asp variant is classified as pathogenic for thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia syndrome. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Published functional studies resulted in absent thiamine transport and retention of the protein in the endoplasmic reticulum, demonstrating a damaging effect (PMID: 12435857); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 12065289, 31589614, 31095747, 17463047, 23454484, 29450569, 19643445, 22369132, 35686496, 33571483, 10874303, 28371426, 15871139, 19619756, 10391221, 33816400, 12435857) -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 172 of the SLC19A2 protein (p.Gly172Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs28937595, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (PMID: 9856490, 10391221, 19643445, 33816400). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5957). 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 SLC19A2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on SLC19A2 function (PMID: 12065289, 12435857). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
