Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -14 ACMG points: 0P and 14B. BP7BS2BA1BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.*11C>T variant is a nucleotide substitution in the 3'UTR of GAMT. Because the variant is located in the 3'UTR, it is not expected to alter the amino acid sequence of the gene product. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.05828 (1381/23694 alleles) in the African / African-American population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.003), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). Furthermore, the variant has been observed in the homozygous state in 37 individuals out of 134,627 in gnomAD v2.1.1. Given the severity and early onset of the symptoms of GAMT deficiency, this data suggests that the variant does not cause this condition (BS2). It is not predicted to not impact splicing by Splice AI and VarSeak, and the nucleotide is not highly conserved (BP4, BP7). This variant is noted in ClinVar (ID 204598). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for GAMT deficiency. GAMT-specific ACMG/AMP codes met, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes VCEP (Specifications Version 1.1.0): BA1, BS2, BP4, BP7.(Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 6, 2022).

Genes affected
GAMT (HGNC:4136): (guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase) The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that converts guanidoacetate to creatine, using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Defects in this gene have been implicated in neurologic syndromes and muscular hypotonia, probably due to creatine deficiency and accumulation of guanidinoacetate in the brain of affected individuals. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 2 and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
