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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-80105022-AT-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-80105022-AT-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 554096.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Feb 21, 2022	Algorithms 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. -

Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel	curation	ClinGen Lysosomal Storage Disorder Variant Curation Expert Panel	Aug 24, 2021	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. -
