Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPM3_StrongPP4_ModeratePVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000152.5:c.379_380del (p.Cys127LeufsTer18) variant in GAA is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant-exon 2/20, leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). At least 4 patients with Pompe disease and this variant have been reported that meet the ClinGen LSD VCEP’s specifications for PP4_Moderate. Of these patients, the available data includes documentation of laboratory values showing GAA deficiency (PMIDs 18757064, 24245577, 24715333, 30049495, 33162552). Furthermore, one of these patients had documented features consistent with infantile onset Pompe disease (PMID 24715333, 33162552) and another was on enzyme replacement therapy (PMID 30049495)(PP4_Moderate). These patients are all compound heterozygous for the variant and another pathogenic variant in GAA, phase unknown, including c.525delT (PMID 24715333, 33162552), “del exon 18” (PMID 9660056), and c.-32-13T>G (PMID 17573812, 17643989, 18757064, 24245577, 33458579; at least two patients). Total 2 points (PM3_Strong). Another patients is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.2104C>T (p.Arg702Cys); phase unconfirmed (PMID 30049495). The in trans data from this patient will be used in the assessment of p.Arg702Cys and was not included here in order to avoid circular logic. The variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552747, two star review status) with two submitters classifying the variant as pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP Specification Version 2.0): PVS1, PM3_Strong, PP4_Moderate, PM2_Supporting.

Genes affected
GAA (HGNC:4065): (alpha glucosidase) This gene encodes lysosomal alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple intermediate forms and the mature form of the enzyme. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
