Genes affected
SLC25A20 (HGNC:1421): (solute carrier family 25 member 20) This gene product is one of several closely related mitochondrial-membrane carrier proteins that shuttle substrates between cytosol and the intramitochondrial matrix space. This protein mediates the transport of acylcarnitines into mitochondrial matrix for their oxidation by the mitochondrial fatty acid-oxidation pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency, which can cause a variety of pathological conditions such as hypoglycemia, cardiac arrest, hepatomegaly, hepatic dysfunction and muscle weakness, and is usually lethal in new born and infants.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsMar 30, 2024- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 16, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg166*) in the SLC25A20 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC25A20 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25614308). This variant is present in population databases (rs151340616, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency (PMID: 10384384, 12559850). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12135). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 05, 2021Variant summary: SLC25A20 c.496C>T (p.Arg166X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251456 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.496C>T has been reported in the literature in at least two individuals (homozygous and a compound heterozygous) affected with Carnitine-Acylcarnitine Translocase Deficiency (Costa_1999 and Wang_2011). One homozygous individual with this variant was reported as having a complete deficiency of Carnitine Acylcarnitine carrier enzyme activity at day 3 and confirmed three months later in fibroblasts, however, primary data supporting this finding were not reported (Costa_1999). To our knowledge, no other experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 09, 2018The R166X nonsense variant in the SLC25A20 gene has been reported previously in association with carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency (Costa et al., 1999; Wang et al., 2011). The R166X variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). This pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. -
