Genes affected
AGXT (HGNC:341): (alanine--glyoxylate aminotransferase) This gene is expressed only in the liver and the encoded protein is localized mostly in the peroxisomes, where it is involved in glyoxylate detoxification. Mutations in this gene, some of which alter subcellular targetting, have been associated with type I primary hyperoxaluria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: AGXT c.126delG (p.Leu43CysfsX3) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 247266 control chromosomes. c.126delG has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1 (Williams_2007). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (Williams_2007). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 204176). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu43Cysfs*3) in the AGXT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AGXT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19479957). This variant is present in population databases (rs765811788, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of hyperoxaluria (PMID: 17495019). -
