Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PM1PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong

The NM_020549.5(CHAT):​c.1679G>A​(p.Arg560His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000657 in 1,613,904 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R560C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
CHAT (HGNC:1912): (choline O-acetyltransferase) This gene encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This gene product is a characteristic feature of cholinergic neurons, and changes in these neurons may explain some of the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital myasthenic syndrome associated with episodic apnea. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, and some of these variants have been shown to encode more than one isoform. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_020549.5
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr10-49655138-C-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2993039.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.877
PP5
Variant 10-49655139-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr10-49655139-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 17510.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
