Genes affected

GCDH (HGNC:4189): (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family. It catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of glutaryl-CoA to crotonyl-CoA and CO(2) in the degradative pathway of L-lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan metabolism. It uses electron transfer flavoprotein as its electron acceptor. The enzyme exists in the mitochondrial matrix as a homotetramer of 45-kD subunits. Mutations in this gene result in the metabolic disorder glutaric aciduria type 1, which is also known as glutaric acidemia type I. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 12. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 19-12896416-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-12896416-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 370672.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr19-12896416-CT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr19-12896416-CT-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Oct 29, 2023	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu283Argfs*8) in the GCDH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GCDH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10699052, 11854167, 16602100). This variant is present in population databases (rs761491320, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with glutaric acidemia type I (PMID: 26316201, 29086383). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370672). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
