The NM_000169.3(GLA):c.644A>G (p.Asn215Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000349 (AC=38) in the gnomAD database across 1,089,867 control chromosomes, including 11 hemizygotes. The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0000327. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 8.02). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000543776: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLA function (PMID:16773563, 17555407, 21598360)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.N215K: Likely_pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 3910027, 1 star) Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.N215D: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 4087448, 1 star); p.N215H: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 179331, 2 stars) This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance.

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 13 points.

PS3Functional studies show damaging effect
Well-established functional study supports damaging effect (PS3); SCV000543776: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLA function (PMID: 16773563, 17555407, 21598360).; SCV001422796: "In vitro functional studies provide evidence of decreased enzymatic activity and protein stability, and therefore the p.Asn215Ser variant may impact protein function." PMID: 23935525, 23568732, 21972175, 21598360, 17555407,15702404, 16773563; SCV004357520: Functional studies have shown that this variant results in reduced GLA enzyme activity when expressed in HEK-293 or COS-7 cells. PMID: 16773563, 17555407, 21598360; SCV004821932: Functional studies have shown that this variant results in reduced GLA enzyme activity when expressed in HEK-293 or COS-7 cells (PMID: 16773563, 17555407, 21598360).; SCV000207827: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as this variant is associated with reduced alpha-galactosidase A enzyme activity compared to wild-type (Spada et al. 2006; Wu et al. 2011); SCV000925088: Given the strong case data and functional studies demonstrating impaired alpha-galactosidase enzyme activity we consider this variant to be disease-causing and we do feel it is suitable for establishing a diagnosis/carrier status of Fabry disease and assessing risk in healthy relatives ("predictive genetic testing").; SCV004563354: Functional analyses demonstrate that enzyme with this variant has reduced stability/activity (Ishii 2007, Spada 2006).; SCV000739938: In several functional in vitro analyses, this alteration has demonstrated a reduction in alpha-galactosidase A enzyme activity, suggesting variable expressivity among clinical phenotypes depending on residual enzyme activity (Spada, 2006; Wu, 2011; Ishii, 2007; Ebrahim, 2012).; SCV000198194: Multiple functional studies have shown that the p.Asn215Ser variant protein has reduced enzymatic activity (Mills 2005, Ishii 2007, Wu 2011, Ebrahim 2012, Tian 2013).
PM1Mutational hot spot or critical domain
UniProt domain with ≥4 pathogenic missense and OR ≥ 5 vs. background — hotspot (PM1); In-domain: 40 pathogenic, 0 benign rare missense variants (OR vs. background: 405.0).; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 22 pathogenic, 0 benign (OR vs. background: 225.0).
PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue
Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.N215K: Likely_pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 3910027, 1 star); Other variants at the same amino acid residue (not pathogenic): p.N215D: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 4087448, 1 star); p.N215H: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 179331, 2 stars)
PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect
Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — supporting evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Supporting).
PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic
ClinVar 2-star pathogenic — strong (PP5); ClinVar submissions overwhelmingly pathogenic (≥10 total, ≥80% P/LP, <10% B/LB) — strong (PP5, count-based); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 2 star(s). ClinVar submissions strongly and reliably favor pathogenicity (27/27 total P/LP).
