Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Strong
The NM_000298.6(PKLR):c.1436G>T(p.Arg479Leu) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000342 in 1,461,838 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R479C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. This variant disrupts the c.1436G nucleotide in the PKLR gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15059150, 8161798). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with pyruvate kinase deficiency (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine with leucine at codon 479 of the PKLR protein (p.Arg479Leu). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and leucine. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 9, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. -
