The NM_000018.4: c.640T>G (p.Phe214Val) in ACADVL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of phenylalanine by valine at amino acid 214 (p.Phe214Val). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.000009 in Non-Finnish European population, which is lower than the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel threshold (<0.001) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). This variant has been reported in the literature in five individuals with an abnormal newborn screen who are apparently heterozygous carriers for the variant (PMID: 26385305), but this information is insufficient to use toward classification. This variant resides within a region, amino acids 214–223, of ACADVL that is defined as a mutational hotspot and critical functional domain by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel (PMIDs: 20060901, 9973285; PM1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.916, which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to ACADVL function (PP3). Due to limited evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance for autosomal recessive very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel: PM1, PM2_Supporting, PP3 (ACADVL VCEP specifications version 1; approved November 9, 2021).
