Genes affected
GLDC (HGNC:4313): (glycine decarboxylase) Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The protein encoded by this gene is the P protein, which binds to glycine and enables the methylamine group from glycine to be transferred to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Glycine encephalopathy Pathogenic:4

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: GLDC c.911C>T (p.Pro304Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Glycine cleavage system P-protein, N-terminal domain (IPR049315) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The frequency data for this variant in gnomAD v2.1 is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the exome samples. However, in the genome samples, it was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 31404 chromosomes. c.911C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia; Swanson_2015, Coughlin_2017). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant results in no detectible enzymatic activity (Swanson_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26179960, 27362913). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554650). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 304 of the GLDC protein (p.Pro304Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycine encephalopathy, also known as non-ketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 26179960, 27362913). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554650). 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 GLDC protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLDC function (PMID: 26179960). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant has been previously reported in patients with non-ketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 27362913, 26179960). In one patient, the c.911C>T was in compound heterozygous state with another missense variant (PMID: 26179960). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.0003% (1/282642) and thus is presumed to be rare. In silico analyses support a deleterious effect of the variant on protein function. Based on the available evidence, the c.911C>T (p.Pro304Leu) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
