Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5

The NM_000405.5(GM2A):c.412T>C(p.Cys138Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,613,242 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C138Y) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
GM2A (HGNC:4367): (ganglioside GM2 activator) This gene encodes a small glycolipid transport protein which acts as a substrate specific co-factor for the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase A. Beta-hexosaminidase A, together with GM2 ganglioside activator, catalyzes the degradation of the ganglioside GM2, and other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines. Mutations in this gene result in GM2-gangliosidosis type AB or the AB variant of Tay-Sachs disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
