Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM2PM6PP3PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.214C>T (p.R72C) variant in PDHA1 has been reported in multiples males with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency with phenotypes ranging from childhood onset Leigh syndrome spectrum (PMID:8664900) to living into adulthood with ataxia, neuropathy, and dystonia (PMID:21914562). We did not come across any affected female case reports in this extensive literature review. This variant has been reported to be inherited from a healthy mother (PMID:10679936; case 3-4) and there have been several de novo case reports, as well. Indeed, this variant has been identified as a de novo occurrence (unconfirmed parental relationships) in at least three unrelated individuals with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency [PM6; Utilized ClinGen SVI de novo scoring guidance (phenotype consistent but not highly specific); PMID:10679936, case 3-2; PMID:10679936, case 3-3; PMID:21914562, case AM23]. Additionally, this variant has been seen in at least one other individual with documented decreased pyruvate dehydrogenase activity (PP4; Patient 3 in PMID:15384102 had Leigh syndrome and decreased total PDH complex activity (in native and DCA-activated states) in fibroblast cell line (<3rd percentile of controls). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.955, which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to PDHA1 function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency inherited in an X-linked manner. This classification was approved by the NICHD U24 Mitochondrial Disease Variant Curation Expert Panel on May 20, 2020. PDHA1-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PM6, PP3, PP4.

Genes affected
PDHA1 (HGNC:8806): (pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha 1) The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial multienzyme complex that catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2), and provides the primary link between glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The PDH complex is composed of multiple copies of three enzymatic components: pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). The E1 enzyme is a heterotetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits. This gene encodes the E1 alpha 1 subunit containing the E1 active site, and plays a key role in the function of the PDH complex. Mutations in this gene are associated with pyruvate dehydrogenase E1-alpha deficiency and X-linked Leigh syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
