Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Moderate PP5_Moderate

The NM_000170.3(GLDC):​c.2323C>T​(p.His775Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,640 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H775P) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

GLDC (HGNC:4313): (glycine decarboxylase) Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The protein encoded by this gene is the P protein, which binds to glycine and enables the methylamine group from glycine to be transferred to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 5) in uniprot entity GCSP_HUMAN there are 4 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000170.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr9-6553501-T-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.893
• PP5: Variant 9-6553502-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-6553502-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 531764.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 775 of the GLDC protein (p.His775Tyr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycine encephalopathy (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 531764). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GLDC protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.His775 amino acid residue in GLDC. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16601880, 27362913). 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. -
