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:3
Oct 10, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 564 of the GLDC protein (p.Ser564Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs121964974, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycine encephalopathy and/or nonketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 1634607, 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: 11982). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLDC function (PMID: 1634607, 15192636, 15236413, 15824356). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
