Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4BS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_001482.3:c.277A>G variant in GATM is a missense variant that is predicted to cause the substitution of an isoleucine by a valine at amino acid position 93 (p.Ile93Val). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00012 (2/16256 alleles) in the African population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BS1 (>0.0001), and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.143 which is below the threshold of 0.15, evidence that does not predict a damaging effect on AGAT function (BP4). Expression of the variant in HeLa cells resulted in 18% of wild type AGAT activity, over than the cutoff for PS3_Supporting (<15%) and less than the cutoff for BS3_Supporting (≥30%), such that no experimental evidence codes are met. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205610). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for AGAT 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): BS1, BP4.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on October 8th, 2024).

Genes affected
GATM (HGNC:4175): (glycine amidinotransferase) This gene encodes a mitochondrial enzyme that belongs to the amidinotransferase family. This enzyme is involved in creatine biosynthesis, whereby it catalyzes the transfer of a guanido group from L-arginine to glycine, resulting in guanidinoacetic acid, the immediate precursor of creatine. Mutations in this gene cause arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency, an inborn error of creatine synthesis characterized by cognitive disability, language impairment, and behavioral disorders.

Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The NM_001482.3:c.277A>G variant in GATM is a missense variant that is predicted to cause the substitution of an isoleucine by a valine at amino acid position 93 (p.Ile93Val). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00012 (2/16256 alleles) in the African population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BS1 (>0.0001), and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.143 which is below the threshold of 0.15, evidence that does not predict a damaging effect on AGAT function (BP4). Expression of the variant in HeLa cells resulted in 18% of wild type AGAT activity, over than the cutoff for PS3_Supporting (<15%) and less than the cutoff for BS3_Supporting (≥30%), such that no experimental evidence codes are met. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205610). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for AGAT 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): BS1, BP4. (Classification approved by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on October 8th, 2024). -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 93 of the GATM protein (p.Ile93Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs34991226, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GATM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205610). 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 GATM protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on GATM function (PMID: 27233232). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
