Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BA1BS3_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_001482.3:c.1244G>A variant in GATM is a missense variant predicted to cause the substitution of an arginine by a glutamine at amino acid position 415 (p.Arg415Gln). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.000915 (28/30616 alleles) in the South Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.0005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). Expression of the variant in HeLa cells resulted in 39% wild type AGAT activity suggesting that this variant does not significantly impact protein function (PMID:27233232) (BS3_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.201 which is neither above nor below the thresholds predicting a damaging (>0.75) or benign (<0.15) impact on AGAT function. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225921). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as 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): BA1, BS3_Supporting.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel on August 20, 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.

The NM_001482.3:c.1244G>A variant in GATM is a missense variant predicted to cause the substitution of an arginine by a glutamine at amino acid position 415 (p.Arg415Gln). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.000915 (28/30616 alleles) in the South Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen CCDS VCEP’s threshold for BA1 (>0.0005), and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). Expression of the variant in HeLa cells resulted in 39% wild type AGAT activity suggesting that this variant does not significantly impact protein function (PMID: 27233232) (BS3_Supporting).

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

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 415 of the GATM protein (p.Arg415Gln). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. 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: 225921). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GATM protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect 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. -
