Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP4_ModeratePP3PM3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.538G>A (NM_000018.4) variant in ACADVL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of alanine by threonine at amino acid 180 (p.Ala180Thr). This variant has been reported in patients affected with very-long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency, and elevated C14:1 and reduced VLCAD activity measured in patient lymphocytes (PP4_Moderate, PMID:26385305, 31844625, 32778825, 30194637). At least one individual was compound heterozygote with a second ACADVL variant, at least one of these variants is confirmed in trans and approved by the ACADVL VCEP as likely pathogenic (PM3, 1 point, PMID:31844625, 30194637). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD is 0.00003 in the Latino population, which is lower than the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.92, which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to ACADVL function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive VLCAD deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel: PM2_Supporting, PM3, PP3, PP4_Moderate (ACADVL VCEP specifications version 1; approved November 9, 2021). This variant was originally curated December 14, 2022 and the recurated classification was approved by the expert panel on April 23, 2023.

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]

Very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency Pathogenic:6Uncertain:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 06, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 180 of the ACADVL protein (p.Ala180Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs727503791, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and/or very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and a positive newborn screening result for ACADVL-related disease (PMID: 26385305, 30194637, 32798077; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 166641). 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 expected to disrupt ACADVL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 12, 2022Variant summary: ACADVL c.538G>A (p.Ala180Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase/oxidase, N-terminal domain (IPR013786) of 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 1.2e-05 in 251462 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.538G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Very Long Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (e.g. Miller_2015, Janzen_2017, Hesse_2018). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. Analysis of lymphocytes from a compound heterozygous patient with 2 missense variants, including the variant of interest, showed approximately 3% residual activity, indicating both variants were loss-of-function (Hesse_2018). Six ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: three classified the variant as uncertain significance, two as likely pathogenic, and one as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 13, 2018The ACADVL c.538G>A; p.Ala180Thr variant (rs727503791) is reported in the literature to be significantly enriched in patients with abnormal newborn screening results suggestive of VLCAD deficiency (Miller 2015). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 166641), and is only observed on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The alanine at residue 180 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Based on available information, the p.Ala180Thr variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Miller M et al. Recurrent ACADVL molecular findings in individuals with a positive newborn screen for very long chain acyl-coA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency in the United States.

Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenApr 23, 2024The c.538G>A (NM_000018.4) variant in ACADVL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of alanine by threonine at amino acid 180 (p.Ala180Thr). This variant has been reported in patients affected with very-long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency, and elevated C14:1 and reduced VLCAD activity measured in patient lymphocytes (PP4_Moderate, PMID: 26385305, 31844625, 32778825, 30194637). At least one individual was compound heterozygote with a second ACADVL variant, at least one of these variants is confirmed in trans and approved by the ACADVL VCEP as likely pathogenic (PM3, 1 point, PMID: 31844625, 30194637). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD is 0.00003 in the Latino population, which is lower than the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.92, which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to ACADVL function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive VLCAD deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel: PM2_Supporting, PM3, PP3, PP4_Moderate (ACADVL VCEP specifications version 1; approved November 9, 2021). This variant was originally curated December 14, 2022 and the recurated classification was approved by the expert panel on April 23, 2023. -
