Genes affected
GAA (HGNC:4065): (alpha glucosidase) This gene encodes lysosomal alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple intermediate forms and the mature form of the enzyme. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

The p.Arg375His variant in GAA has been reported in two Asian individuals with glycogen storage disease II (PMID: 21757382, 21484825), and has been reported in 0.02% of African chromosomes, 0.01% (3/30544) of South Asian chromosomes, and 0.0008% (1/127354) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs142752477). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar as a VUS by Invitae (VariationID: 572725). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. One additional likely pathogenic variant, resulting in a different amino acid change at the same position, p.Arg375Leu, has been reported in association with the disease in the literature and ClinVar (PMID: 25103075, 18429042, 18429042; VariationID: 283230). The phenotype of a heterozygous individual is highly specific for Glycogen Storage Disease II based on GAA activity assays with fibroblast cells (PMID: 21757382). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM5_supporting, PM2, PP3, PP4 (Richards 2015). -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 375 of the GAA protein (p.Arg375His). This variant is present in population databases (rs142752477, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Pompe disease (PMID: 21484825, 21757382; internal data). 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: 572725). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GAA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg375 amino acid residue in GAA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18429042, 22990675, 24158270, 29422078). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
