The NM_005629.4:c.1142-2A>G variant occurs within the canonical acceptor splice site of intron 7 and is predicted to result in skipping of exon 8 (113 bp) resulting in a frameshift leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). The variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1. (PM2_Supporting). This variant has been reported in an individual who is a participant in the Association for Creatine Deficiencies registry, CreatineINFO. Further clinical and laboratory details are not currently available. The classification of this variant has been upgraded from Variant of Uncertain Significance to Likely Pathogenic based on the recommendations of the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation Working Group, that a variant meeting PVS1 and PM2_Supporting is classified as Likely Pathogenic (https://clinicalgenome.org/site/assets/files/5182/pm2_-_svi_recommendation_-_approved_sept2020.pdf ). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for creatine transporter deficiency. SLC6A8-specific criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel (Specifications Version 1.1.0): PVS1, PM2_Supporting. (Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 13, 2024)
