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.

Fabry disease Pathogenic:7
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 09, 2021This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 363 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 7.5% residual GLA enzyme activity when expressed in HEK-293 cells (PMID: 21598360). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Fabry disease (PMID: 12175777, 19387866, 28749998, 29661900, 32442237) and a female with left ventricular hypertrophy (PMID: 31987665). Cultured cells from an affected male showed 8% residual GLA enzyme activity (PMID: 19387866), and an affected female showed elevated lysoglobotriaosylceramide levels (PMID: 28749998). This variant has been reported in a newborn (PMID: 28615118) and in a 33-year-old asymptomatic female (PMID: 31117083). Both of them had reduced GLA enzyme activity. This variant has been identified in 2/183376 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). A different missense variant occurring at the same codon, p.Arg363His, has been associated with Fabry disease (Clinvar variation ID: 222141), indicating that arginine at this position is important for the protein function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 01, 2022Variant summary: GLA c.1087C>T (p.Arg363Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Alpha galactosidase A, C-terminal beta-sandwich domain (IPR035373) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.1e-05 in 183376 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1087C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with later onset or non-classic presentations of Fabry Disease (example, Balendran_2020, Mauhin_2020, Arends_2018) and as a variant causing classical Fabry disease (example, Shabbeer_2002, cited in Benjamin_2009). These data do not allow a firm conclusion about variant significance. At least two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (example, Wu_2011, Benjamin_2009). The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 citing overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic (n=3)/likely pathogenic (n=4). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedresearchAgnes Ginges Centre for Molecular Cardiology, Centenary InstituteJun 27, 2019GLA Arg353Cys has been previously identified in 5 Fabry patients (Phyu P, et al., 2018; Pettazzoni M, et al., 2017; Benjamin ER, et al., 2009; Shabbeer J, et al., 2002). We identified this variant in a patient presenting with left ventricular hypertrophy, subsequent clinical screening confirmed a diagnosis of Fabry disease. The variant is present at a low frequency in the Genome Aggregation Database (MAF= 0.000011 http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico tools SIFT and PolyPhen-2 predict this variant to be benign, however MutationTaster predicts this variant to be "Disease causing". Interestingly another amino acid change at this position (Arg363His) has been classified as pathogenic. suggesting that an amino acid substitution at this site may not be tolerated. In summary, based on rarity in the general population, reports of this variant in affected individuals, and because Fabry disease is caused only by variants in the GLA gene, we classify GLA Arg353Cys as "likely pathogenic". -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 22, 2020The p.Arg363Cys variant in GLA has been reported in the literature in two males with classic Fabry, as well as in five individuals in ClinVar (PMID: 12175777, 21598360; ID:198401), and has been identified in 0.00244% (2/81841) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes, including 1 hemizygote, by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs797044776). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with Fabry disease. Please note that for diseases with clinical variability, or reduced penetrance, pathogenic variants may be present at a low frequency in the general population. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic by EGL Genetic Diagnostics (VariationID:198401). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg363Cys variant may slightly impact protein function (PMID: 21598360, 27744182, 19387866). 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 an individual hemizygous for this variant is highly specific for Fabry disease based on the classical phenotype that is consistent with disease (PMID: 12175777). One additional likely pathogenic variant, causing a different amino acid change at the same position, p.Arg363His, has been reported in association with disease in the literature and ClinVar, slightly supporting that a change at this position may not be tolerated (PMID: 21598360, 28302345,12175777, 23935525, 26937405,11668641,25382311/Variation ID: 222141). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_supporting, PS3_supporting, PS4_moderate, PP4, PM5_supporting (Richards 2015). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 363 of the GLA protein (p.Arg363Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs797044776, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with features of Fabry disease (PMID: 12175777; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 198401). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The cysteine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLA function (PMID: 21598360). This variant disrupts the p.Arg363 amino acid residue in GLA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11668641, 12175777, 26937405, 28302345). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
