Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BS2BA1BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.392-7C>T variant in GAMT is a nucleotide substitution in intron 3. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00430 (107/24892 alleles) in the African population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.003), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). There are 4 homozygotes in gnomAD v2.1.1 (all in the S Asian population) which, given the early onset and severity of phenotype for GAMT deficiency, supporting that the variant is not associated with GAMT deficiency. Computational evidence from SpliceAI and varSEAK suggests no impact on the gene/gene product (BP4). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 137436,). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for GAMT deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): BA1, BS2, BP4.(Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 6, 2022).

Genes affected
GAMT (HGNC:4136): (guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase) The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that converts guanidoacetate to creatine, using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Defects in this gene have been implicated in neurologic syndromes and muscular hypotonia, probably due to creatine deficiency and accumulation of guanidinoacetate in the brain of affected individuals. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 2 and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
GAMT Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency
