Genes affected
GLA (HGNC:4296): (galactosidase alpha) This gene encodes a homodimeric glycoprotein that hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. This enzyme predominantly hydrolyzes ceramide trihexoside, and it can catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. A variety of mutations in this gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties.

RPL36A-HNRNPH2 (HGNC:48349): (RPL36A-HNRNPH2 readthrough) This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring ribosomal protein L36a and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein H2 (H') genes on chromosome X. The read-through transcript produces a protein with similarity to the protein encoded by the upstream locus, ribosomal protein L36a. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 26 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 24 uncertain in NM_000169.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrX-101400685-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 585078.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 218 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 17 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.8759 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: NaN (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Fabry disease.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.981
PP5
Variant X-101400685-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-101400685-T-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 197113.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

GLA c.620A>G is a missense variant that changes the amino acid at residue 207 from Tyrosine to Cysteine. This variant has been observed in at least one proband affected with Fabry disease (PMID:32023956;30972193;37940383;37626912). At least one functional study has demonstrated a substantial alteration in protein function relative to the wild-type (PMID:32023956;21598360;27657681). It is absent or not present at a significant frequency in gnomAD. In silico models agree that this variant is possibly or probably damaging. In conclusion, we classify GLA c.620A>G as a pathogenic variant.
