Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPM3_SupportingPP4_ModeratePVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000152.5:c.437del (p.Met146ArgfsTer7) variant in GAA is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically relevant exon 2/20 leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). The variant was found in compound heterozygosity with a pathogenic variant in two patients who meet the ClinGen LSD VCEP's PP4 specifications; one with c.2237G>A (p.Trp746Ter) (PMID 26693141), and the other with c.2481+102_2646+31del (PMID 22658377)(PP4_Moderate, PM3_Supporting). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554096, 1 star review status) with one submitter classifying the variant as likely pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP (specification version 2.0): PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PM3_Supporting, PP4_Moderate.

Genes affected
GAA (HGNC:4065): (alpha glucosidase) This gene encodes lysosomal alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple intermediate forms and the mature form of the enzyme. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpFeb 21, 2022Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554096). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Pompe disease (PMID: 29122469). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met146Argfs*7) in the GAA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GAA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18425781, 22252923). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
