Genes affected
GYS2 (HGNC:4707): (glycogen synthase 2) The protein encoded by this gene, liver glycogen synthase, catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of glycogen - the transfer of a glucose molecule from UDP-glucose to a terminal branch of the glycogen molecule. Mutations in this gene cause glycogen storage disease type 0 (GSD-0) - a rare type of early childhood fasting hypoglycemia with decreased liver glycogen content. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
GYS2 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • glycogen storage disorder due to hepatic glycogen synthase deficiency

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg192*) in the GYS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GYS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9691087). This variant is present in population databases (rs150382575, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GYS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 214530). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

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

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v4.1.0 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.005%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000214530). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

The R192X variant in the GYS2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The R192X variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret R192X as a likely pathogenic variant.
