Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BA1BP4BP7

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_001482.3:c.1252T>C (p.Leu418=) variant in GATM is a synonymous (silent) variant that is not predicted by SpliceAI to impact splicing. In addition, it occurs at a nucleotide that is not conserved as shown by PhyloP (BP7). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.9186 (18317/19940 alleles) in the East Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.0005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.0 for donor and acceptor loss suggesting that the variant has no impact on splicing, and the nucleotide is not highly conserved (BP4, BP7). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 129137). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for AGAT deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): BA1, BP4, BP7.(Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 6, 2022).

Genes affected
GATM (HGNC:4175): (glycine amidinotransferase) This gene encodes a mitochondrial enzyme that belongs to the amidinotransferase family. This enzyme is involved in creatine biosynthesis, whereby it catalyzes the transfer of a guanido group from L-arginine to glycine, resulting in guanidinoacetic acid, the immediate precursor of creatine. Mutations in this gene cause arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency, an inborn error of creatine synthesis characterized by cognitive disability, language impairment, and behavioral disorders.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 12, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
