Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM2PVS1PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: This variant, c.989G>A (p.Trp330Ter), is a nonsense variant that is predicted to result in nonsense mediated decay and lack of gene product, meeting PVS1. Two individuals with Pompe disease and meeting the ClinGen LSD VCEP's specifications for PP4 have been reported in the literature. These individuals are non-identical twins and are compound heterozyous for the variant and c.1655T>C (p.Leu552Pro); this in trans data was used in the assessment of p.Leu552Pro and therefore was not included here in order to avoid a circular argument. Another individual was reported to be compound heterozygous for the variant and c.-32-13T>G (PMID 29880332). While this patient was described as having reduced GAA activity in dried blood spots, the normal range for the assay was not provided and therefore this data was not included. The variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1, meeting PM2. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID 550355; 1 star review status) with one submitter classifying the variant as likely pathogenic. In summary, the variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. ACMG-AMP criteria met, based on the specifications of the ClinGen LSD VCEP: PVS1, PM2, PP4.

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, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Lysosomal Storage Disorder Variant Curation Expert PanelApr 21, 2020This variant, c.989G>A (p.Trp330Ter), is a nonsense variant that is predicted to result in nonsense mediated decay and lack of gene product, meeting PVS1.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJul 15, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp330*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Pompe disease (PMID: 12923862). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550355). -
