Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.575C>T variant in GAMT is a missense variant that is predicted to cause the substitution of a threonine by a methionine at amino acid position 192 (p.Thr192Met). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature and results of functional studies are unavailable. The highest continental population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1.0. is 0.0002665 (20/75058 alleles; no homozygotes) in the African/African American population, which is lower than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.0004), meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). Although the allele frequency in the Ashkenazi Jewish population in gnomAD v4.1.0. is higher at 0.002467 (73/29588 alleles; no homozygotes) (meeting BS1, >0.001) this frequency is not counted because it was found in a non-continental population (Ghosh et al, 2018, PMID:30311383). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.677 which is above the threshold of 0.644, evidence that correlates with impact to GAMT function (PP3). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205582). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for GAMT deficiency. GAMT-specific ACMG/AMP codes met, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes VCEP (Specifications Version 2.0.0): PM2_Supporting, PP3.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on September 11, 2024).

Genes affected
GAMT (HGNC:4136): (guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase) The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that converts guanidoacetate to creatine, using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Defects in this gene have been implicated in neurologic syndromes and muscular hypotonia, probably due to creatine deficiency and accumulation of guanidinoacetate in the brain of affected individuals. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 2 and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

  • guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency
