Genes affected
PYGM (HGNC:9726): (glycogen phosphorylase, muscle associated) This gene encodes a muscle enzyme involved in glycogenolysis. Highly similar enzymes encoded by different genes are found in liver and brain. Mutations in this gene are associated with McArdle disease (myophosphorylase deficiency), a glycogen storage disease of muscle. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingKnight Diagnostic Laboratories, Oregon Health and Sciences UniversityDec 04, 2015The c.425-26A>G intron variant in the PYGM gene has been previously reported in one affected individual with autosomal recessive McArdle disease who harbored this variant in trans with a second common pathogenic missense variant (G205S). This variant has been shown to result in atypical mild phenotype (Vissing et al., 2009). Splicing studies show this c.425-26A>G variant causes exon skipping of exon 4 in the PYGM gene (Vissing et al., 2009). The c.425-26A>G variant is present at low frequencies (ExAC = 0.006%) or absent in the control population databases (Exome Sequencing Project [ESP] and 1000 Genomes). PYGM is the only gene in which mutations are known to cause McArdle disease. Therefore, this collective evidence supports the classification of the c.425-26A>G as a recessive likely pathogenic variant for McArdle disease. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 25, 2022Variant summary: PYGM c.425-26A>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, at least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing resulting in skipping of exon 4 (Vissing_2009). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 250854 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in PYGM causing Glycogen Storage Disease, Type V (5.6e-05 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.425-26A>G has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype in individuals affected with Glycogen Storage Disease, Type V (example, Vissing_2009, Gandhi_2021, Pizzamiglio_2021). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (Likely Pathogenic/Pathogenic, n=4; VUS, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 25, 2024This sequence change falls in intron 3 of the PYGM gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PYGM protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs764313717, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with glycogen storage disease (PMID: 19433441). 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: 2316). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 4 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 19433441). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
