Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 1P and 3B. PP2BP4_ModerateBS1_Supporting

The NM_000161.3(GCH1):​c.22G>T​(p.Ala8Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000115 in 1,483,228 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A8T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
GCH1 (HGNC:4193): (GTP cyclohydrolase 1) This gene encodes a member of the GTP cyclohydrolase family. The encoded protein is the first and rate-limiting enzyme in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis, catalyzing the conversion of GTP into 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate. BH4 is an essential cofactor required by aromatic amino acid hydroxylases as well as nitric oxide synthases. Mutations in this gene are associated with malignant hyperphenylalaninemia and dopa-responsive dystonia. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described; however, not all variants give rise to a functional enzyme. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 30 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.5191 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.62455 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency, dystonia 5, GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency with hyperphenylalaninemia.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.15217066).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000012 (16/1331040) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000206 (15/72832). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000126. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 12 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
