Genes affected
GLDC (HGNC:4313): (glycine decarboxylase) Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The protein encoded by this gene is the P protein, which binds to glycine and enables the methylamine group from glycine to be transferred to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

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. -

GLDC NM_000170.2 intron 8 c.1156-7C>G: This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.9% (101/10472) of Finnish alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, including one homozygote (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/9-6595126-G-C?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is also present in ClinVar, with multiple labs classifying this variant as benign or likely benign (Variation ID:367195). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. Although this variant occurs in the splice region, computational prediction tools do not suggest that it alters splicing. However, further studies are needed to understand its impact. In summary, data on this variant suggests that this variant does not cause disease, but requires further evidence. Therefore this variant is classified as likely benign. -
