Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPVS1PP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000152.5:c.2242del (p.Glu748ArgfsTer16) variant in GAA is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant-exon 16 out of 20, leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). One Chinese patient with late-onset Pompe disease has been described who is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.1634C>T (p.Pro545Leu). This individual has documented values showing deficiency GAA activity in dried blood spots (PMID:35071497) (PP4_Moderate). The allelic data from this individual will be used in the classification of p.Pro545Leu and is not included here to avoid circular logic. This variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1. (PM2_Supporting). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID 370639). This variant was initially classified by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP on Sept 07, 2021 as likely pathogenic. Recuration, on Jan 15, 2023, led to reclassification as pathogenic due to the availability of new case-level data (PMID:35071497). GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Expert Panel (Specifications Version 2.0): PVS1, PP4_Moderate, PM2_Supporting.(Classification approved by the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases Variant Curation Expert Panel on Jan 15, 2024).

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]
