Genes affected

GLDC (HGNC:4313): (glycine decarboxylase) Degradation of glycine is brought about by the glycine cleavage system, which is composed of four mitochondrial protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase). The protein encoded by this gene is the P protein, which binds to glycine and enables the methylamine group from glycine to be transferred to the T protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 17) in uniprot entity GCSP_HUMAN there are 11 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000170.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.878
• PP5: Variant 9-6565391-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-6565391-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 462860.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr9-6565391-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Feb 08, 2022

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLDC function (PMID: 26179960). 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 GLDC protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 462860). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with nonketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 26179960; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 630 of the GLDC protein (p.Arg630Pro). -
