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]
SYCE2 (HGNC:27411): (synaptonemal complex central element protein 2) The protein encoded by this gene is part of the synaptonemal complex formed between homologous chromosomes during meiotic prophase. The encoded protein associates with SYCP1 and SYCE1 and is found only where chromosome cores are synapsed. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

The GCDH c.1262C>T (p.Ala421Val) variant is a well-known founder variant among the Old Order Amish of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where approximately one in 500 children is homozygous for this variant (Strauss et al. 2007; Strauss et al. 2009). Across three studies that included 138 total Amish and European-ancestry individuals with glutaric acidemia type 1 (GA1), the p.Ala421Val variant is reported in 21 total individuals, including eight homozygotes, eight compound heterozygotes, and five in whom the zygosity is not stated (Biery et al. 1996; Zschocke et al. 2000; Viau et al. 2012). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.00033 in the European (non-Finnish) population from the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Functional studies in E. Coli showed that the p.Ala421Val variant resulted in enzyme activity that was 20% to 40% that of the wild type protein (Biery et al. 1996). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Ala421Val variant is classified as pathogenic for glutaric acidemia. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Variant summary: The GCDH c.1262C>T (p.Ala421Val) variant located in the Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase/oxidase C-terminal domain (via InterPro) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 4/4 in silico tools (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index) predict a damaging outcome for this variant . This variant was found in 23/121322 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001896, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic GCDH variant (0.0035355). Multiple publications cite the variant in affected GA-1 compound heterozygote and homozygote individuals. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

NM_000159.2(GCDH):c.1262C>T(A421V) is a missense variant classified as pathogenic in the context of glutaric acidemia, GCDH-related. A421V has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 15505393, 8900227). Functional assessments of this variant are available in the literature (PMID: 8900227). A421V has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: NFE 0.02%). In summary, NM_000159.2(GCDH):c.1262C>T(A421V) is a missense variant that has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 421 of the GCDH protein (p.Ala421Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs121434367, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glutaric acidemia (PMID: 8900227, 18926513, 28438223). It is commonly reported in individuals of Amish ancestry (PMID: 8900227, 18926513, 28438223). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2082). 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%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GCDH function (PMID: 8900227). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
