Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BP7BA1BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.279C>T (p.Asp93=) is a synonymous variant in GAMT that is predicted to not impact splicing by SpliceAI and VarSeak, and the nucleotide is not highly conserved (BP4, BP7). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00484 (87/17976 alleles) in the East Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.003), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). This variant does not appear to have been previously reported in the published literature. It is noted in ClinVar (Variation ID 137434). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for GAMT deficiency. GAMT-specific ACMG/AMP codes met, as specified by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP (Specifications Version 1.1.0): BA1, BP4, BP7.(Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 6, 2022).

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]
GAMT Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency
