Genes affected
GBA1 (HGNC:4177): (glucosylceramidase beta 1) This gene encodes a lysosomal membrane protein that cleaves the beta-glucosidic linkage of glycosylceramide, an intermediate in glycolipid metabolism. Mutations in this gene cause Gaucher disease, a lysosomal storage disease characterized by an accumulation of glucocerebrosides. A related pseudogene is approximately 12 kb downstream of this gene on chromosome 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Variant summary: GBA c.1192C>T (p.Arg398X) 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 allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 246218 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1192C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Gaucher Disease (Alfonso_2007, Duran_2012, Hoitsema_2016, Stone_2000, Beutler_1994). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

The p.Arg398Ter variant in GBA has been reported in at least 8 individuals with Gaucher Disease (PMID: 17427031, 27222815, 21779299, 25435509, 30328501, 10352942) and has been identified in 0.003% (1/30610) of South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121908309). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (VariationID: 4326) as likely pathogenic by Praxis fuer Humangenetik Tuebingen and as pathogenic by EGL Genetic Diagnostics, Integrated Genomics, and OMIM. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 398, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the GBA gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive Gaucher disease. Additionally, the presence of this variant in combination with reported pathogenic variants in and in 4 individuals with Gaucher disease increases the likelihood that the p.Arg398Ter variant is pathogenic (VariationID: 4290, 4288; PMID: 17427031, 27222815, 10352942). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Gaucher disease in an autosomal recessive manner based on the expectation that the variant will cause loss of function, the low frequency of the variant in the general population, and the occurrence of the variant in combination with other pathogenic variants. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PM3 (Richards 2015).
