Genes affected
GLA (HGNC:4296): (galactosidase alpha) This gene encodes a homodimeric glycoprotein that hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. This enzyme predominantly hydrolyzes ceramide trihexoside, and it can catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. A variety of mutations in this gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 13, 2019Variant summary: GLA c.1024C>T (p.Arg342X) 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. The variant was absent in 182951 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1024C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Fabry Disease (Davies_1993, Lee_2010, Uribe_2015, Rigoldi_2014). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Patients carrying the variant of interest were found to have 0% GLA activity (Lee_2010, Uribe_2015). Two ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 13, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 10743). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Fabry disease (PMID: 8395937, 16595074, 19287194, 20505683, 23980562, 26297554). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg342*) in the GLA gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 88 amino acid(s) of the GLA protein. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects GLA function (PMID: 20505683). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

GLA-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 31, 2023The GLA c.1024C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg342*). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with classic Fabry disease (Davies et al. 1993. PubMed ID: 8395937; Park et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19287194; Rigoldi et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23980562; Uribe et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26297554; Lee et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20505683). In patients with this variant the GLA activity in leukocytes was shown to be 0% of the normal GLA enzymatic activity (Uribe et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26297554; Lee et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20505683). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Nonsense variants in GLA gene are expected to be pathogenic. Although this variant occurs in the last exon and may not result in nonsense mediated decay, other pathogenic variants were reported downstream of this variant. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
