Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PVS1 PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.308_309del (p.Lys103Argfs*20) variant in ACADVL is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant-exon 6/20 leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1; PMIDs: 9973285, 11590124). This variant has been detected in one individual identified by abnormal newborn screening or presumed positive on newborn screening for very long chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency with no reported follow-up plasma acylcarnitine or enzyme activity; a second distinct pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in ACADVL was not reported in this individual (PMID:26385305). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). To our knowledge, functional assays have not been reported for this variant. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as LIKELY PATHOGENIC for autosomal recessive very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel: PVS1, PM2_Supporting (ClinGen ACADVL VCEP specifications version#2; 05-00-2022).

Genes affected

ACADVL (HGNC:92): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase very long chain) The protein encoded by this gene is targeted to the inner mitochondrial membrane where it catalyzes the first step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. This acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase is specific to long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids. A deficiency in this gene product reduces myocardial fatty acid beta-oxidation and is associated with cardiomyopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys103Argfs*20) in the ACADVL gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ACADVL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9973285, 11590124). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with abnormal newborn screening results suggestive of VLCADD (PMID: 26385305). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371068). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
