Glycine encephalopathy Pathogenic:3
- -
The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported to be associated with AMT related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000557617 / PMID: 26179960). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln166*) in the AMT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AMT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16450403). This variant is present in population databases (rs558998633, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with nonketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 26179960). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557617). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
