Genes affected

GYS2 (HGNC:4707): (glycogen synthase 2) The protein encoded by this gene, liver glycogen synthase, catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of glycogen - the transfer of a glucose molecule from UDP-glucose to a terminal branch of the glycogen molecule. Mutations in this gene cause glycogen storage disease type 0 (GSD-0) - a rare type of early childhood fasting hypoglycemia with decreased liver glycogen content. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.3, offset of -13, new splice context is: gagGTcatt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 12-21563227-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-21563227-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 16050.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Glycogen storage disorder due to hepatic glycogen synthase deficiency Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	literature only	OMIM	Aug 01, 1998	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	May 27, 2022	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16050). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with glycogen storage disease type 0 (PMID: 9691087). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the GYS2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in GYS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9691087). -
