Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000170.3(GLDC):c.1382G>A(p.Arg461Gln) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000806 in 1,613,528 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R461P) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Glycine encephalopathy Pathogenic:4

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. -
GLDC-related disorder Pathogenic:1
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. -
