Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPVS1_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.668dupA (p.Tyr223fs) variant in GAMT is a frameshift variant in the last exon (exon 6/6; amino acid 223/237) of GAMT, and is therefore predicted to escape nonsense mediated decay. Less than 10% of the protein is predicted to be removed (PVS1_Moderate). The variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in published literature in individuals with GAMT deficiency. It is noted in ClinVar (Variation ID 445930). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for GAMT deficiency. GAMT-specific ACMG/AMP codes met, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes VCEP (Specifications Version 1.1.0): PM2_Supporting, BP4.(Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 6, 2022).

Genes affected

GAMT (HGNC:4136): (guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase) The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that converts guanidoacetate to creatine, using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Defects in this gene have been implicated in neurologic syndromes and muscular hypotonia, probably due to creatine deficiency and accumulation of guanidinoacetate in the brain of affected individuals. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 2 and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 445930). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GAMT-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs781163821, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr223*) in the GAMT gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 14 amino acid(s) of the GAMT protein. -
