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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	May 23, 2022	Variant summary: GAA c.1561G>A (p.Glu521Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251268 control chromosomes. c.1561G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Glycogen Storage Disease, Type 2 (Pompe Disease) in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state (eg. Hermans_1991, Herzog_2012, Liu_2014, Montagnese_2016, etc). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The variant has been reported to have <10% enzyme activity in cell culture experiments (Hermans_1991, Flanagan_2009). Two 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 pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	literature only	Counsyl	Nov 20, 2014	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	curation	Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard	Jan 22, 2020	The p.Glu521Lys variant in GAA has been reported in 11 individuals (including at least 3 Caucasian and 2 Indian individuals) with Glycogen Storage Disease II, segregated with disease in 2 affected siblings from 1 family (PMID: 21605996, 19862843, 22704482, 1898413, 17723315, 17027861, 22676651, 25673129, 20033296, 20308911), and has been identified in 0.003% (1/30616) of South Asian chromosomes by gnomAD by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121907937). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported likely pathogenic by Counsyl and pathogenic by OMIM in ClinVar (Variation ID: 4022). Another variant at this position, p.Glu521Val, has been reported as a VUS in association with disease in the literature (PMID: 25526786). In vitro functional studies, including transfection of COS cells and a Western Blot, provide some evidence that the p.Glu521Lys variant may impact protein processing and function (PMID: 1898413, 19862843). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. The presence of this variant in combination with reported pathogenic variants in compound heterozygous individuals with Glycogen Storage Disease II increases the likelihood that the p.Glu521Lys variant is pathogenic (PMID: 25673129, 17723315, 20033296). The phenotype of homozygous and heterozygous individuals with this variant is highly specific for Glycogen Storage Disease II based on GAA enzyme activity assays (PMID: 21605996, 25673129, 22676651, 20033296, 17723315, 1898413). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Glycogen Storage Disease II in an autosomal recessive manner based on in vitro functional studies and multiple occurrences with pathogenic variants in affected individuals. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3, PS3, PM2, PP3, PP4 (Richards 2015). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Aug 02, 2023	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	May 22, 2022	The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). The variant is in trans with NM_000152.5:c.1556T>C variant. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.93; 3Cnet: 0.95). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000004022). The variant is in trans with the other variant. Different missense changes at the same codon (p.Glu521Gln, p.Glu521Val) have been reported to be associated with GAA related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000972760 / PMID: 18425781, 25526786). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 19, 2023	This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 521 of the GAA protein (p.Glu521Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs121907937, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Pompe disease (PMID: 1898413, 17723315). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4022). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GAA protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GAA function (PMID: 1898413). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
