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]

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

Variant summary: GLDC c.395C>T (p.Ser132Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251492 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.395C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Glycine Encephalopathy (Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia) (example: Coughlin_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 132 of the GLDC protein (p.Ser132Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833576, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycine encephalopathy (PMID: 26179960). 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: 945637). 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. -
