Genes affected
GLDC (HGNC:4313): (glycine decarboxylase) Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The protein encoded by this gene is the P protein, which binds to glycine and enables the methylamine group from glycine to be transferred to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

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 461 of the GLDC protein (p.Arg461Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833524, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycine encephalopathy (PMID: 16601880, 26179960). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56043). 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 expected to disrupt GLDC protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLDC function (PMID: 26179960). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

The GLDC c.1382G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg461Gln. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals with non-ketotic hyperglycinemia (Conter et al 2006. PubMed ID: 16601880; Suzuki Y et al 2010. PubMed ID: 20691948; Coughlin CR et al 2016. PubMed ID: 27362913; Farris et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32421718). Functional studies have shown that this variant has the measurable residual activity of 0.5 to 1% of control (Swanson MA et al 2015. PubMed ID: 26179960). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/9-6592870-C-T). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
