Description

In a patient reported by Brown et al. (1984) with MLYCD deficiency (248360), Wightman et al. (2003) found a G-to-A transition at nucleotide 8 of the cDNA predicted to result in a gly3-to-asp (G3D) protein change; the mutation was present in homozygous state. The MLYCD protein was mislocalized to the plasma membrane, suggesting that a novel targeting signal may reside in a 4-amino acid conserved N-terminal motif.

Description

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 3 of the MLYCD protein (p.Gly3Asp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with biochemical features of MLYCD-related disorders (PMID: 12955715; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4059). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Description

This variant has been previously reported, in one individual, as a homozygous change in patients with Malonyl-CoA decarboxylase deficiency (PMID: 12955715). Functional studies confirm this variant results in decreased mRNA levels and loss of protein function (PMID: 12955715). The c.8G>A (p.Gly3Asp) variant is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.01150% (1/8698) and thus is presumed to be rare. The c.8G>A (p.Gly3Asp) variant affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a discordant effect on protein function. Based on the available evidence, the c.8G>A (p.Gly3Asp) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
