Genes affected
GLB1 (HGNC:4298): (galactosidase beta 1) This gene encodes a member of the glycosyl hydrolase 35 family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature lysosomal enzyme. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of a terminal beta-linked galactose residue from ganglioside substrates and other glycoconjugates. Mutations in this gene may result in GM1-gangliosidosis and Morquio B syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.12487709 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.2, offset of 26, new splice context is: gtttctaacctgactctcAGttc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

GM1 gangliosidosis;C0086652:Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-IV-B Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 25, 2024This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 14 of the GLB1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs587776526, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with GLB1-related conditions (PMID: 10737981, 21497194, 25557439). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 946). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 10737981). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
GM1 gangliosidosis Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 20, 2020Variant summary: GLB1 c.1480-2A>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: One predict the variant abolishes a 5 splicing donor site. Four predict the variant abolishes a 3 acceptor site. In agreement with this, at least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing (Morrone_2000). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 245574 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1480-2A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals (both homozygous and compound heterozygous) affected with GM1 Gangliosidosis (Morrone_2000, Santamaria_2006, Utz_2015, Caciotti_2011) and in at least one individual (compound heterozygous) with MorquioB (Caciotti_2011). Most of the GM1 Gangliosidosis patients were of infantile phenotype. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Enzymatic activity from patient derived (who were homozygous for this variant) fibroblasts and leukocytes were found to have very low activity (Morrone_2000, Santamaria_2006). Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

(SP) 0210 - Splice site variant proven to affect splicing of the transcript with a known effect on protein sequence. Sequencing of cDNA obtained from patient’s RNA revealed the intronic retention of 28bp, leading to a frameshift and premature termination codon (PMID: 10737981). (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (3 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes).

(SP) 1001 - This variant has strong functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. The enzymatic activity of beta-galactosidase was reduced to 1% of controls in patient cells (PMID: 10737981). (SP) 1201 - Heterozygous variant detected in trans with a second pathogenic heterozygous variant (NM_000404.3:c.1445G>A; p.(Arg482His)) in a recessive disease.
