Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PS3PM2PP5

The NM_000170.3(GLDC):​c.2368C>T​(p.Arg790Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000031 in 1,613,458 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000963027: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLDC function (PMID:15192636, 28244183)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R790Q) 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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000963027: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLDC function (PMID: 15192636, 28244183).; SCV004223845: At least two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant resulted in approximately 15% of normal activity (e.g., Kure_2004, Bravo-Alonso_2017). PMID: 28244183, 27362913, 15192636; SCV002558013: Studies have shown mutant results in reduced enzyme activity of around 15% compared to the wild-type (PMIDs: 28244183, 15192636).
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 9-6553457-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-6553457-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 56075.
