Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PS3_SupportingPM1PM2_SupportingPP2_ModeratePM3_SupportingPP4_ModeratePP3_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1316G>A variant in ACADVL has been reported in three individuals with very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency in the literature with either significantly reduced VLCAD activity or increased C14:1 acylcarnitine levels, two displaying both phenotypes at once (PP4_strong; PMIDs: 31031081, 23480858, 17999356). In these same probands, the variant was detected three times not confirmed in-trans with several different variants including the pathogenic variant c.848T>C (PM3_supporting; PMIDs: 31031081, 23480858, 17999356). Fibroblast analysis and E. coli transfected with constructs harboring the variant both showed significantly deficient enzyme activity (PS3_supporting; PMIDs: 23480858, 17999356). This variant has a MAF of 0.00005012 in the East Asian population (PM2_supporting; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The variant is located in a well-studied Gly-Gly-x-Gly motif which is critical for the protein's dimer interaction with FAD (PM1; PMID:20060901). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protein (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency in an autosomal recessive manner.

Genes affected
ACADVL (HGNC:92): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase very long chain) The protein encoded by this gene is targeted to the inner mitochondrial membrane where it catalyzes the first step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. This acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase is specific to long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids. A deficiency in this gene product reduces myocardial fatty acid beta-oxidation and is associated with cardiomyopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 439 of the ACADVL protein (p.Gly439Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs533055438, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (PMID: 17999356, 23480858; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203582). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ACADVL protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ACADVL function (PMID: 23480858). This variant disrupts the p.Gly439 amino acid residue in ACADVL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with ACADVL-related conditions (internal data), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: ACADVL c.1316G>A (p.Gly439Asp) 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 2e-05 in 251404 control chromosomes. c.1316G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Very Long Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (Gobin-Limballe_2007, Schiff_2014, Isackson_2013, Rovelli_2019). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Schiff_2014). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20060901, 23169530, 31031081, 23480858). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203582). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The ACADVL c.1316G>A; p.Gly439Asp variant (rs533055438) is reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in individuals diagnosed with VLCAD deficiency (Gobin-Limballe 2010, Pena 2016, Schiff 2013). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 203582), and found in the general population with an allele frequency of 0.002% (6/277134 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.964), and functional analyses of the variant protein show no enzyme activity (Schiff 2013). Based on available information, this variant is considered pathogenic. References: Gobin-Limballe S et al.
