Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP7BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000152.5:c.1920T>G variant in GAA is a synonymous (silent) variant that does not change the encoded amino acid (p.Pro640=) and is not predicted to impact splicing. This variant has not been reported as disease-causing in an individual with Pompe disease. It has been described as a polymorphism in a cohort of patients with infantile or juvenile-onset Pompe disease from Taiwan (PMID:18458862). It was also reported in two patients in a European cohort with limb-girdle muscle weakness without a second variant (PMID:29149851). Thus, there is insufficient data to apply PP4. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v3.1.2 is [0.001534] (8/5184 alleles) in East Asian population. This is higher than the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP’s threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.001), and lower than the threshold for BS1 (>0.005). Therefore none of the population data codes are met. This variant 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 PhyloP100 (-2.182) and PhastCons (0.000) (BP4, BP7). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 255358; 1-star review status) with 10 submitters classifying the variant as uncertain significance (4) or likely benign (6). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for Pompe disease based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert panel (Specifications Version 2.0): BP4, BP7.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert Panel on May 7, 2024).

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]

The c.1920T>G (p.Pro640=) variant in GAA has not been reported in individuals with Glycogen Storage Disease II but has been reported in 2 European individuals with unexplained limb-girdle muscle weakness (PMID: 29149851). This variant has also been reported likely benign (by GeneDx, PreventionGenetics, Mayo Clinic Genetic Testing Laboratories, and Invitae) and as a VUS by EGL in ClinVar (Variation ID: 255358). This variant has been identified in 0.09150% (18/19672) of East Asian chromosomes, 0.04553% (11/24162) of European (Finnish) chromosomes, and 0.01683% (21/124752) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs144090460). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. However, novel synonymous variants supported by computational evidence without raised suspicion for an impact are likely benign (Richards 2015). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely benign. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, BP4, BP7 (Richards 2015). -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
