Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM1PP2PP3
The NM_000016.6(ACADM):c.351_352delAGinsCA(p.Gly118Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type MNV, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T117T) has been classified as Benign.
ACADM (HGNC:89): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase medium chain) This gene encodes the medium-chain specific (C4 to C12 straight chain) acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase. The homotetramer enzyme catalyzes the initial step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. Defects in this gene cause medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency, a disease characterized by hepatic dysfunction, fasting hypoglycemia, and encephalopathy, which can result in infantile death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points.
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 8 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000016.6
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 95 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 29 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.54287 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.41658 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.
PP3
No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
