Genes affected
GCDH (HGNC:4189): (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family. It catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of glutaryl-CoA to crotonyl-CoA and CO(2) in the degradative pathway of L-lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan metabolism. It uses electron transfer flavoprotein as its electron acceptor. The enzyme exists in the mitochondrial matrix as a homotetramer of 45-kD subunits. Mutations in this gene result in the metabolic disorder glutaric aciduria type 1, which is also known as glutaric acidemia type I. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 12. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 191 of the GCDH protein (p.Met191Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs149120354, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with GCDH enzymatic activity <0.5% of wild-type, findings that are highly specific for glutaric aciduria type I (PMID: 9600243). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 198396). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GCDH protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: GCDH c.572T>C (p.Met191Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Acyl-CoA oxidase/dehydrogenase, central domain of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-05 in 251460 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in GCDH causing Glutaric Acidemia Type 1 (8e-05 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.572T>C has been observed in multiple individuals affected with Glutaric Acidemia Type 1 (Christensen_2004, Kaya Ozcora_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Christensen_2004). The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15505393, 28411331). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 198396). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
