Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM5PP3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000156.6:c.59G>T variant in GAMT is a missense variant that is predicted to result in the substitution of tryptophan by leucine at amino acid 20 (p.Trp20Leu). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with GAMT deficiency and the result of functional studies are not available. The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.804 which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to GAMT function (PP3). Another missense variant, c.59G>C (p.Trp20Ser) (ClinVar Variation ID: 8303)) has been reported at the same amino acid position and has been classified as pathogenic for GAMT deficiency by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP (PM5). This variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 588631, 1 star review status). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as uncertain significance for GAMT deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): PM2_Supporting, PM5, PP3.(Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP, Sept 12, 2023) LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA402998326/MONDO:0012999/026

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]
GAMT Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency
