Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp8*) in the GLDC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GLDC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16601880). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with classic nonketotic hyperglycinemia (PMID: 27362913). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552944). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
