Genes affected
GCH1 (HGNC:4193): (GTP cyclohydrolase 1) This gene encodes a member of the GTP cyclohydrolase family. The encoded protein is the first and rate-limiting enzyme in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis, catalyzing the conversion of GTP into 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate. BH4 is an essential cofactor required by aromatic amino acid hydroxylases as well as nitric oxide synthases. Mutations in this gene are associated with malignant hyperphenylalaninemia and dopa-responsive dystonia. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described; however, not all variants give rise to a functional enzyme. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency;C1851920:Dystonia 5 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 01, 2022This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 69 of the GCH1 protein (p.Pro69Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs56127440, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dystonia, parkinsonism, and hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 15389992, 19491146, 25125585, 25398234, 26230973, 27185167, 27217339, 30314816). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161247). 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 not expected to disrupt GCH1 protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
