Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_Moderate

The NM_000152.5(GAA):c.1324G>A(p.Val442Met) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000579 in 1,589,618 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V442V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
GAA (HGNC:4065): (alpha glucosidase) This gene encodes lysosomal alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple intermediate forms and the mature form of the enzyme. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 06, 2022This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 442 of the GAA protein (p.Val442Met). 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 missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Pompe disease (PMID: 21232767). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 497377). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 22, 2020The p.Val442Met variant in GAA has been reported in 1 individual with Glycogen Storage Disease II in a newborn screening program in Taiwan (PMID: 21232767). This variant has been identified in 0.008% (1/12176) of African chromosomes and 0.002% (2/87210) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs377559348). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported as a VUS by Counsyl, Invitae, and EGL Genetic Diagnostics in ClinVar (Variation ID: 497377). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Val442Met variant may not be pathogenic and result in a false-positive for Glycogen Storage Disease II screening in the presence of the known pseudodeficiency allele p.Gly576Ser (PMID: 23632029). The pseudodeficiency allele was seen in cis with the p.Val442Met variant in the proband discovered via newborn screening (PMID: 21232767). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. This variant was reported in combination with a reported likely pathogenic variant, p.Gly615Arg, and in an individual with Glycogen Storage Disease II (Variation ID: 188786). In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Val442Met variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, BS3_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
