Genes affected
ACADM (HGNC:89): (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase medium chain) This gene encodes the medium-chain specific (C4 to C12 straight chain) acyl-Coenzyme A dehydrogenase. The homotetramer enzyme catalyzes the initial step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. Defects in this gene cause medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency, a disease characterized by hepatic dysfunction, fasting hypoglycemia, and encephalopathy, which can result in infantile death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 27, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281016). This sequence change falls in intron 5 of the ACADM gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ACADM protein. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with MCAD deficiency (PMID: 21083904; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 03, 2022Variant summary: ACADM c.388-5G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant creates a new 3' acceptor site three base pairs upstream from the canonical splice site. Two predict the variant abolishes the canonical 3' acceptor site and one predicts the variant weakens the canonical 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 250272 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.388-5G>A has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in at least one individual affected with Medium Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (Kennedy_2010). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: three classify the variant as uncertain significance and one as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
