Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PP4PM2PVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: This variant, c.2140delC (p.His714Thrfs), is a frameshift variant that is predicted to result in a premature termination codon, nonsense mediated decay, and no gene product. Therefore, PVS1 can be applied. The variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1, meeting PM2. This variant has been reported in two patients who also carry a second variant in GAA. One of these cases meets the ClinGen LSD VCEP’s specifications for PP4 and is compound heterozygous for p.His714Thrfs and a missense variant, c.1561G>A (p.Glu521Lys); the phase is unknown (PMID 17723315). The in trans data from this patient will be used in the assessment of p.Glu521Lys and, therefore, was not included here in order to avoid circular logic. The second case is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.-32-13T>G (PMID 30564623) but the GAA activity was not reported and PP4 cannot be assessed. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188904, 2 star review status) with 2 submtters classifying the variant as pathogenic and one as likely pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP: PVS1, PM2, PP4.

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 submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 05, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188904). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Pompe disease (PMID: 17723315). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His714Thrfs*50) in the GAA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GAA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18425781, 22252923). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 17, 2020Variant summary: GAA c.2140delC (p.His714ThrfsX50) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 223082 control chromosomes. c.2140delC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Glycogen Storage Disease, Type 2 (Pompe Disease, McCready_2007, Nallamilli_2018). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three 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. -
