Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Moderate PP5_Moderate

The NM_000170.3(GLDC):c.449A>G(p.Asn150Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000342 in 1,461,060 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 Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N150T) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_000170.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr9-6620204-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2098519.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.922
• PP5: Variant 9-6620205-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-6620205-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1417588.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 150 of the GLDC protein (p.Asn150Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GLDC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1417588). 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. This variant disrupts the p.Asn150 amino acid residue in GLDC. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 34513771; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
