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.

Variant summary: AMT c.825T>A (p.Asn275Lys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aminomethyltransferase, folate-binding domain (IPR006222) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00033 in 251364 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in AMT causing Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia) (0.00033 vs 0.0014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.825T>A in individuals affected with Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia) and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. The following publication reporting a non-ascertainable evidence has been cited in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22171071). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 346031). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
