Genes affected
OAT (HGNC:8091): (ornithine aminotransferase) This gene encodes the mitochondrial enzyme ornithine aminotransferase, which is a key enzyme in the pathway that converts arginine and ornithine into the major excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA. Mutations that result in a deficiency of this enzyme cause the autosomal recessive eye disease Gyrate Atrophy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. Related pseudogenes have been defined on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Ornithine aminotransferase deficiency Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsMar 17, 2024- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 01, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg398*) in the OAT gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 42 amino acid(s) of the OAT protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs200068769, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with gyrate atrophy of the choroid and the retina (PMID: 7887415). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 456519). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects OAT function (PMID: 7887415, 23076989). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The stop gained variant c.1192C>T (p.Arg398Ter) in OAT gene has been reported in an individual affected with gyrate atrophy of the choroid and the retina (Michaud J et.al.,1995). Experimental studies have shown that this nonsense change leads to a drastic reduction of the OAT enzymatic activity (Doimo M et.al.,2013). This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. The p.Arg398Ter variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes and allele frequency of 0.000797% is reported in gnomAD. The nucleotide change in OAT is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic -

Hyperornithinemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 28, 2022Variant summary: OAT c.1192C>T (p.Arg398X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar and is associated with Gyrate atrophy in HGMD. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250954 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1192C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ornithine Aminotransferase Deficiency (examples: Michaud_1995 and Cleary_2005). These data indicate that the variant is associated with disease. Multiple publications have provided experimental evidence that this variant abolishes the protein function (example: Doimo_2012 and Cleary_2005). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
