Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM2 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_005391.5(PDK3):c.473G>A(p.Arg158His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 11/19 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R158G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

PDK3 (HGNC:8811): (pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3) The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial multienzyme complex that catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2). It provides the primary link between glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and thus is one of the major enzymes responsible for the regulation of glucose metabolism. The enzymatic activity of PDH is regulated by a phosphorylation/dephosphorylation cycle, and phosphorylation results in inactivation of PDH. The protein encoded by this gene is one of the three pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases that inhibits the PDH complex by phosphorylation of the E1 alpha subunit. This gene is predominantly expressed in the heart and skeletal muscles. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	May 07, 2019	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has been reported to affect PDK3 protein function (PMID: 23297365). This variant has been observed to segregate with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease in families (PMID: 23297365, 26801680). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 60682). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine with histidine at codon 158 of the PDK3 protein (p.Arg158His). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and histidine. -

The c.473G>A (p.R158H) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the PDK3 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 473, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 158 to be replaced by a histidine (H). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been reported to co-segregate with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease in two families with different haplotypes (Kennerson, 2013; Kennerson, 2016). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Functional studies show a gain of function affect (Kennerson, 2013; Perez-Siles, 2016; Perez-Siles, 2020; Narayanan, 2021). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
