Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2PP5_Moderate

The NM_002860.4(ALDH18A1):c.727G>C(p.Val243Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 13/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V243D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
ALDH18A1 (HGNC:9722): (aldehyde dehydrogenase 18 family member A1) This gene is a member of the aldehyde dehydrogenase family and encodes a bifunctional ATP- and NADPH-dependent mitochondrial enzyme with both gamma-glutamyl kinase and gamma-glutamyl phosphate reductase activities. The encoded protein catalyzes the reduction of glutamate to delta1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, a critical step in the de novo biosynthesis of proline, ornithine and arginine. Mutations in this gene lead to hyperammonemia, hypoornithinemia, hypocitrullinemia, hypoargininemia and hypoprolinemia and may be associated with neurodegeneration, cataracts and connective tissue diseases. Alternatively spliced transcript variants, encoding different isoforms, have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaAug 15, 2023The ALDH18A1 c.727G>C (p.Val243Leu) missense variant has been reported in a heterozygous state in one family with a phenotype which included bilateral cataracts, gastroesophageal reflux with persistent vomiting, and spastic paraparesis with amyotrophy (PMID:26297558). The variant segregated with disease in eleven affected family members over three generations and was absent in all unaffected members tested. Functional studies with recombinant p.Val243Leu variant protein demonstrated that the enzyme activity was reduced compared to wild type (PMID:26297558). In addition, the p.Val243 residue lies in the glutamate-5-kinase domain and is predicted by modelling to reside within the catalytic region (PMID:26297558). This variant is not observed in version 2.1.1 or version 3.1.2 of the Genome Aggregation Database. Based on the available evidence, the c.727G>C (p.Val243Leu) is classified as likely pathogenic for P5CS deficiency. -
