Genes affected
GLA (HGNC:4296): (galactosidase alpha) This gene encodes a homodimeric glycoprotein that hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. This enzyme predominantly hydrolyzes ceramide trihexoside, and it can catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. A variety of mutations in this gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
RPL36A-HNRNPH2 (HGNC:48349): (RPL36A-HNRNPH2 readthrough) This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring ribosomal protein L36a and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein H2 (H') genes on chromosome X. The read-through transcript produces a protein with similarity to the protein encoded by the upstream locus, ribosomal protein L36a. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.

This missense variant replaces tryptophan with serine at codon 399 of the GLA protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that this variant leads to 53% residual alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) enzyme activity in transfected cells (PMID: 26415523). This variant has been reported in four individuals affected with Fabry disease (PMID: 26415523, 28253518, 29794742). This variant has also been identified in 15/183471 chromosomes (15/19080 South Asian chromosomes) in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 399 of the GLA protein (p.Trp399Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs782449839, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with late-onset Fabry disease (PMID: 26415523, 28253518, 33495303). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217414). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.Trp399Ser variant in GLA has been reported in at least 3 individuals with Fabry disease (PMID: 26415523,28253518, 29794742), and has been identified in 0.08% (15/19080) of South Asian chromosomes, including 7 hemizygotes, by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs782449839). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar as likely pathogenic by Albrecht-Kossel-Institute (Medical University Rostock) and a VUS by Invitae (ID: 217414). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Trp399Se variant may not impact protein function (PMID: 26415523). 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. The phenotype of individuals hemizygous for this variant is highly specific for Fabry disease based on the classical phenotype which is consistent with disease (PMID: 26415523, 28253518, 28728877). In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1, PP4, PS4_supporting, BS3_supporting (Richards 2015). -

Variant summary: GLA c.1196G>C (p.Trp399Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Two of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.2e-05 in 183471 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in GLA causing Fabry Disease (8.2e-05 vs 0.005), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1196G>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Later-onset Fabry Disease and slightly elevated levels of lyso-Gb3 and in one homozygous female with particularly severe clinical manifestations including cardiomyopathy and beginning kidney failure (Nowak_2017, Nowak_2018, Oder_2018). The later-onset male patient cohort has also been subsequently cited by others. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with classic Fabry Disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in >50% of normal alpha-Galactosidase A enzyme activity in-vitro (example, Lukas_2016). Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
