Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP4_ModeratePM3PP3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000018.4(ACADVL): c.751A>G (p.Ser251Gly) variant is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of serine by glycine at amino acid 251. This variant has been detected in one individual with very long chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency. This individual was compound heterozygous for the variant and a pathogenic variant and confirmed in trans by parental testing (1.0 PM3 points, PMID:26937394, PM3_moderate). At least one patient with this variant displayed NBS C14:1 levels ≥ 1.0 μM and follow-up Plasma Acylcarnitine analysis consistent with VLCADD, which is highly specific for VLCAD deficiency (PP4_moderate, PMID:26937394). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00003 in the non-Finnish European 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 0.978, 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_moderate, PP3, PP4_Moderate (ACADVL VCEP specifications version 1; approved November 9, 2021).

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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 251 of the ACADVL protein (p.Ser251Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs749159573, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with very long chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCAD) deficiency confirmed by biochemical assays (PMID: 26937394; 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: 324989). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

The ACADVL c.751A>G; p.Ser251Gly (rs749159573) is reported in trans to a pathogenic variant in an infant with VLCAD deficiency (Scott Schwoerer 2015). The variant is reported in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 324989) and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.001% (3/251,484 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The serine at codon 251 is highly conserved and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.978). However, given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Ser251Gly variant is uncertain at this time. References: Scott Schwoerer J et al.

NM_000018.3(ACADVL):c.751A>G(S251G) is a missense variant classified as a variant of uncertain significance in the context of very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. S251G has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 26385305, 26937394). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. S251G has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: NFE <0.001%). In summary, there is insufficient evidence to classify NM_000018.3(ACADVL):c.751A>G(S251G) as pathogenic or benign. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The ACADVL c.751A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser251Gly. This variant has been reported on the opposite allele (i.e., in trans) of a pathogenic ACADVL variant in a single patient with abnormal newborn screening and an episode of rhabdomyolysis concerning for very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCADD) (Scott Schwoerer et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26937394). However, we have also observed this variant at PreventionGenetics, in the heterozygous state without a second variant identified, in two patients with suspected VLCADD. This variant is reported in 0.0026% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpret as uncertain significance, likely pathogenic and pathogenic in Clinvar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/324989/). Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
