Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong

The NM_000170.3(GLDC):​c.1832T>G​(p.Val611Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,342 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 Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V611L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 8 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000170.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.987

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 611 of the GLDC protein (p.Val611Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with non-ketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 16450403). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56052). 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 GLDC protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Variant summary: GLDC c.1832T>G (p.Val611Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the glycine cleavage system P protein domain (IPR020581) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251464 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1832T>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia) (Kure_2006). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27362913, 16450403). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56052). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
