Criteria Specifications for this VCEP
Evidence submitted by expert panel
Lysosomal Diseases VCEP
This variant, c.766_c.785delinsC (p.Tyr256ArgfsTer6), is a frameshift variant that is predicted to result in a premature termination codon, nonsense mediated decay, and lack of gene product, meeting PVS1. This is supported by the finding that a patient who is compound heterozygous for this variant and another null variant has no GAA cross-reactive material in cultured skin fibroblasts i.e. CRIM-negative (PMIDs 22252923, 25763511). This patient and one other meet the ClinGen LSD VCEP’s specifications for PP4. The first patient is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.2432delT (p.Leu811fsTer37) (PMID 25763511); the second is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.2014C>T (p.Arg672Trp) (PMID 9535769). The phase of the variants is unknown. In both cases, the in trans data will be used in the assessment of the second variant and was, therefore, not include here for PM3 in order to avoid a circular argument. Another patient has been reported to be compound heterozygous for the variant and c.-32-13T>G but was not included because the residual GAA activity was not reported (PMID 30564623). Finally, two siblings with adult onset Pompe disease have been reported to have the variant but the second variant and residual GAA activity were not provided (PMID 10206684). This variant is not in gnomAD v2.1.1, meeting PM2. There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188880, two star review status) with two submitters classifying the variant as pathogenic and one as likely pathogenic. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Pompe disease. GAA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LSD VCEP: PVS1, PM2, PP4.
Met criteria codes
PP4
Two patients with Pompe disease have been reported with <30% residual GAA activity in cultured skin fibroblasts (PMID 25763511) or <10% residual GAA activity in muscle (PMID 9535769), meeting the specifications for PP4.
PM2
This variant is not in gnomAD v2.1.1.
PVS1
This is a frameshift variant which is predicted to result in a premature termination codon, nonsense mediated decay, and lack of gene product. Therefore, PVS1 can be applied. This is supported by the finding that a patient who is compound heterozygous for this variant and another null variant has no GAA cross-reactive material in cultured skin fibroblasts i.e. CRIM-negative (PMIDs 22252923, 25763511).
Not Met criteria codes
PM3
Two patients with Pompe disease meeting the ClinGen LSD VCEP's specifications for PP4 have been reported. One is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.2014C>T (p.Arg672Trp) (PMID 9535769), and the other is compound heterozygous for the variant and c.2432delT (p.Leu811fsTer37) (PMID 25763511). The phase of the variants is unknown. In both cases, the in trans data will be used in the assessment of the second variant and was, therefore, not include here for PM3 in order to avoid a circular argument. Another patient has been reported to be compound heterozygous for the variant and c.-32-13T>G but was not included because the residual GAA activity was not given and, therefore, PP4 is not met (PMID 30564623). Finally, two siblings with adult onset Pompe disease have been reported to have the variant but the second variant and residual GAA activity were not provided (PMID 10206684). Based on the available data, PM3 is not currently met, but could be met in the future with additional information.
