Genes affected
PHGDH (HGNC:8923): (phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase) This gene encodes the enzyme which is involved in the early steps of L-serine synthesis in animal cells. L-serine is required for D-serine and other amino acid synthesis. The enzyme requires NAD/NADH as a cofactor and forms homotetramers for activity. Mutations in this gene have been found in a family with congenital microcephaly, psychomotor retardation and other symptoms. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, however the full-length nature of most are not known. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.9, offset of 31, new splice context is: gggGTaggg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. Scorers claiming Benign: dbscSNV1_RF.
PP5
Variant 1-119721323-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-119721323-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 280721.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-119721323-T-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 24, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280721). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase deficiency or syndromic epilepsy (PMID: 29286531, 29703746). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the PHGDH gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in PHGDH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14645240, 24836451). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 06, 2016The c.290+2T>C variant in the PHGDH gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice donor site in intron 2. It is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, either leading to an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, or to an abnormal protein product if the message is used for protein translation. The c.290+2T>C variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.290+2T>C as a pathogenic variant. -
