Genes affected
HGD (HGNC:4892): (homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase) This gene encodes the enzyme homogentisate 1,2 dioxygenase. This enzyme is involved in the catabolism of the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine. Mutations in this gene are the cause of the autosomal recessive metabolism disorder alkaptonuria.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 21, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 161 of the HGD protein (p.Gly161Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs28941783, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with alkaptonuria (PMID: 9154114, 12051967, 19862842, 20462779). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3168). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt HGD protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects HGD function (PMID: 10482952). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 05, 2019Across a selection of the available literature, the HGD c.481G>A (p.Gly161Arg) missense variant has been identified in 55 individuals with alkaptonuria, including in a homozygous state in 27 individuals and in a compound heterozygous state in 38 individuals, and is also found in a heterozygous state in 25 unaffected individuals (Gehrig et al. 1997; Vilboux et al. 2009; Zatkova et al. 2012; Usher et al. 2015; Nemethova et al. 2015; Cieszynski et al. 2016). The p.Gly161Arg variant was also shown to segregate with disease in a three-generation family with one affected homozygote (Gehrig et al. 1997). The variant was absent from 384 control chromosomes but is reported at a frequency of 0.000269 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Genome Aggregation Database. The Gly161 residue is conserved. Variant enzyme activity assays performed in E. coli demonstarted that the p.Gly161Arg variant resulted in one percent activity in comparison to wild type (Rodriguez et al. 2000). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Gly161Arg variant is classified as pathogenic for alkaptonuria. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
