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.

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

The p.D234G variant (also known as c.701A>G), located in coding exon 5 of the GATM gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 701. The aspartic acid at codon 234 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. In an assay of GATM activity this alteration was found to be functionally normal (DesRoches CL et al. Hum. Mutat., 2016 09;37:926-32). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 234 of the GATM protein (p.Asp234Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs146057680, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GATM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205624). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GATM protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect GATM function (PMID: 27233232). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
