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]

Submissions by phenotype

Glutaric aciduria, type 1 Pathogenic:3Uncertain:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 17, 2023This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 160 of the GCDH protein (p.Gln160Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glutaric acidemia, type I (PMID: 20084589; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 529445). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae 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. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 28, 2024Variant summary: GCDH c.479A>G (p.Gln160Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase/oxidase, N-terminal domain (IPR013786) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251384 control chromosomes. c.479A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Glutaric Acidemia Type 1. These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 529445). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Tyrosinemia type III Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 28, 2024Variant summary: HPD c.479A>G (p.Tyr160Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251546 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication data). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.479A>G has been reported in the literature in two homozygous individuals (siblings) affected with Tyrosinemia Type 3 (Ruetschi_2000) as well as in one homozygous individual with no clinical symptoms and with normal mental development (Szymanska_2015). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
