Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_001482.3:c.1041C>T variant in GATM is a synonymous (silent) variant (p.Asp347=). SpliceAI does not predict an impact on splicing, but BP7 was not applied because the nucleotide is conserved (GERP score > 5). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature and results of functional studies are unavailable. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00101 (31/30616 alleles) in the South Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.0005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 137450). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for AGAT deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): BA1.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on August 20, 2024).

Genes affected
GATM (HGNC:4175): (glycine amidinotransferase) This gene encodes a mitochondrial enzyme that belongs to the amidinotransferase family. This enzyme is involved in creatine biosynthesis, whereby it catalyzes the transfer of a guanido group from L-arginine to glycine, resulting in guanidinoacetic acid, the immediate precursor of creatine. Mutations in this gene cause arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency, an inborn error of creatine synthesis characterized by cognitive disability, language impairment, and behavioral disorders.

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The NM_001482.3:c.1041C>T variant in GATM is a synonymous (silent) variant (p.Asp347=). SpliceAI does not predict an impact on splicing, but BP7 was not applied because the nucleotide is conserved (GERP score > 5). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature and results of functional studies are unavailable. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00101 (31/30616 alleles) in the South Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.0005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 137450). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for AGAT deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): BA1. (Classification approved by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on August 20, 2024). -

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

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
