Genes affected

GBA1 (HGNC:4177): (glucosylceramidase beta 1) This gene encodes a lysosomal membrane protein that cleaves the beta-glucosidic linkage of glycosylceramide, an intermediate in glycolipid metabolism. Mutations in this gene cause Gaucher disease, a lysosomal storage disease characterized by an accumulation of glucocerebrosides. A related pseudogene is approximately 12 kb downstream of this gene on chromosome 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_000157.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 94 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 3 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.1739 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.2879 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to late-onset Parkinson disease, Gaucher disease perinatal lethal, Gaucher disease, Gaucher disease type I, Gaucher disease-ophthalmoplegia-cardiovascular calcification syndrome, Gaucher disease type II, Parkinson disease, Gaucher disease type III.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.949
• PP5: Variant 1-155235721-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-155235721-A-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 496800.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: GBA1 c.1348T>A (p.Phe450Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 280956 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1348T>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Gaucher Disease (Cormand_1998. Daz-Font_2003, Mucci_2015, Smith_2015, Irn_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9516376, 9856561, 12589426, 32126008, 26142329, 18429048, 26043810). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496800). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
