Genes affected
GCDH (HGNC:4189): (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family. It catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of glutaryl-CoA to crotonyl-CoA and CO(2) in the degradative pathway of L-lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan metabolism. It uses electron transfer flavoprotein as its electron acceptor. The enzyme exists in the mitochondrial matrix as a homotetramer of 45-kD subunits. Mutations in this gene result in the metabolic disorder glutaric aciduria type 1, which is also known as glutaric acidemia type I. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 12. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]
SYCE2 (HGNC:27411): (synaptonemal complex central element protein 2) The protein encoded by this gene is part of the synaptonemal complex formed between homologous chromosomes during meiotic prophase. The encoded protein associates with SYCP1 and SYCE1 and is found only where chromosome cores are synapsed. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 421 of the GCDH protein (p.Ala421Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs151201155, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with GCDH-related conditions (PMID: 27672653, 28302372). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 285973). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GCDH protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Ala421 amino acid residue in GCDH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8900227, 15505393, 28438223). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: GCDH c.1261G>A (p.Ala421Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase/oxidase C-terminal domain (IPR009075) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of three in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0002 in 251284 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0025 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in GCDH causing Glutaric Acidemia Type 1 (0.0002 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1261G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous individuals affected with Glutaric Acidemia Type 1 (e.g. Christensen_2004, Tsai_2017, Wahab_2016, Dong_2020, Lin_2021, Guenzel_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated decreased enzymatic activity both in patient derived fibroblasts (Christensen_2004) and in bacterial expression systems (Goodman_1998, Westover_2003). A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.1262C>T, p.Ala421Val), supporting the critical relevance of codon 421 to GCDH protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15505393, 32005694, 9711871, 34258142, 34344405, 28302372, 27672653, 12948740). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 285973). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
