Lysosomal Diseases VCEP
The NM_000152.5: c.1843G>A variant in GAA is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of glycine by arginine at amino acid 615 (p.Gly615Arg). At least 7 patients with a diagnosis of Pompe disease have been reported with this variant. Five of these patients are reported to have infantile onset Pompe disease (IOPD) and meet the criteria for PP4_Moderate with <10% GAA activity in cultured fibroblasts and/or GAA activity in the affected range in leukocytes (PMIDs: 15366815, 16860134, 18458862, 25037089), documented symptoms consistent with IOPD, and on enzyme replacement therapy (PMIDs: 16860134, 25037089) (PP4_Moderate). Of the reported patients, three are compound heterozygous, phase unknown, for another variant in GAA that has been classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LSD VCEP, either c.2238G>A (p.Trp746Ter) (PMID: 16860134) or c.1935C>A (p.Asp645Glu) (PMID: 18458862) (2 patients). Two patients are homozygous for the variant (PMID: 15366815, 25037089) (PM3_Strong). A further two patients are compound heterozygous for the variant and either c.1832G>A (p.Gly611Asp) (PMID: 24269976) or c.1933G>C (p.Asp645His (clinical laboratory data) . The allelic data from these patients will be used in the classification of the other variant and is not included here to avoid circular. Finally, An 4 patients have been reported in the literature but the data was not included because the cDNA change for the variant was not provided, or does not match amino acid change (PMIDs: 10338092, 18607768, 21757382). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD is 0.00022 in the East Asian population which is lower than the ClinGen LSD VCEP threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). When expressed in COS cells, the variant resulted in <2% GAA activity (PMID 19862843) (PS3_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.989 which is above the threshold of 0.7, evidence that correlates with impact to GAA function (PP3). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188746, 2 star review status), with 5 submitters classifying the variant as pathogenic and one as likely pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Pathogenic for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP (Specifications Verions 2.0): PM3_Strong, PP4_Moderate, PS3_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP3.
Met criteria codes
PS3_Supporting
When expressed in COS cells, the variant resulted in <2% GAA activity (PMID 19862843).
PM3_Strong
Of the reported patients, three are compound heterozygous, phase unknown, for another variant in GAA that has been classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LSD VCEP, either c.2238G>A (p.Trp746Ter) (PMID: 16860134) (0.5 points) or c.1935C>A (p.Asp645Glu) (PMID: 18458862) (2 patients, 2 x 0.5). Two patients are homozygous for the variant (PMID: 15366815, 25037089) (2 x 0.5 points). Total 2.5 points for PM3 (PM3_Strong). A further two patients are compound heterozygous for the variant and either c.1832G>A (p.Gly611Asp) (PMID: 24269976) or c.1933G>C (p.Asp645His (clinical laboratory data) (0.5 points). The allelic data from these patients will be used in the classification of the other variant and is not included here to avoid circular. Finally, An 4 patients have been reported in the literature but the data was not included because the cDNA change for the variant was not provided, or does not match amino acid change (PMIDs: 10338092, 18607768, 21757382).
PM2_Supporting
The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD is 0.00022 (4/17994 alleles) in the East Asian population, which is lower than the ClinGen LSD VCEP threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting).
PP3
The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.989 which is above the threshold of 0.7, evidence that correlates with impact to GAA function (PP3).
PP4_Moderate
At least 7 patients with a diagnosis of Pompe disease have been reported with this variant. Five of these patients are reported to have infantile onset Pompe disease (IOPD), <10% GAA activity in cultured fibroblasts and/or GAA activity in the affected range in leukocytes (PMIDs: 15366815, 16860134, 18458862, 25037089), documented symptoms consistent with IOPD, and on enzyme replacement therapy (PMIDs: 16860134, 25037089) (PP4_Moderate). The remaining patients have a diagnosis of Pompe disease but either no individual residual GAA measurement (PMID: 24269976) or insufficient clinical details (Clinical laboratory data). In addition, several patients were not counted because the cDNA change for the variant was not provided in the publication and hence the variant cannot be verified.
