Genes affected

GLA (HGNC:4296): (galactosidase alpha) This gene encodes a homodimeric glycoprotein that hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. This enzyme predominantly hydrolyzes ceramide trihexoside, and it can catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. A variety of mutations in this gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties.

RPL36A-HNRNPH2 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.1248062 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.8, offset of 13, new splice context is: tttcacacccaattatacAGaaa. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant X-101398946-GC-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-101398946-GC-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 524214.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in GLA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10666480, 12175777). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with GLA-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the GLA gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
