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]

Glutaric aciduria, type 1 Pathogenic:10
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 13, 2022Variant summary: GCDH c.482G>A (p.Arg161Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase/oxidase, N-terminal domain (IPR013786) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251394 control chromosomes. c.482G>A has been reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous genotypes in individuals affected with Glutaric Acidemia Type 1 (example, Popek_2010, Busquets_2000, Christensen_2004, Wang_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Schmiesing_2017). The most pronounced variant effect results in loss of normal GCDH enzyme activity. The variant was also demonstrated to affect GCDH protein stability, protein homo-oligomerization and binding to electron transfer flavoprotein subunit -beta (ETFB) and dihydrolipoamide S-succinyltransferase (DLST), thereby impairing the formation of multimeric enzyme complexes. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 04, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 161 of the GCDH protein (p.Arg161Gln). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GCDH function (PMID: 28062662). 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 not expected to disrupt GCDH protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188789). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glutaric aciduria type I (PMID: 9600243, 10960496, 20836999, 26593172, 28781846). This variant is present in population databases (rs777201305, gnomAD 0.006%). -
