Genes affected
GAA (HGNC:4065): (alpha glucosidase) This gene encodes lysosomal alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple intermediate forms and the mature form of the enzyme. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 22, 2020The c.2190-4G>A variant in GAA has not been previously reported in individuals with Glycogen Storage Disease II but has been reported as a VUS (by Integrated Genetics and EGL Genetic Diagnostics) and a likely benign variant (by GeneDx and Invitae) in ClinVar (Variation ID: 456393). This variant has been identified in 0.02982% (3/10062) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes and 0.02603% (9/34578) of Latino chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs759974338). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant is located in the 3' plice region. Computational prediction tools, including splice predictors, and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. Novel synonymous variants supported by computational evidence without raised suspicion for an impact are likely benign (Richards 2015). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely benign. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, BP7, BP4 (Richards 2015). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 22, 2016Variant summary: c.2190-4G>A affects a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in an intronic change. Mutation Taster predicts for a benign outcome. 5/5 programs via Alamut predict that this variant does not affect normal splicing. ESEfinder predicts changes of binding motifs for RNA splicing enhancers. This variant was found in 4/120722 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000331, which does not exceed the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0042205) in this gene. The variant of interest has not been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical laboratories, nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Because of the absence of clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant has been classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 06, 2023This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
