Description
The c.308A>G variant in ACADVL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of lysine by arginine at amino acid 103 (p.Lys103Arg). This variant has been reported in one individual with elevated C14:1 levels, an acylcarnitine profile consistent with very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency, and a positive fatty acid oxidation probe assay, which are highly specific for VLCAD deficiency (PP4; PMID: 27209629). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 1.2% in the African population, which is higher than the ClinGen ACADVL threshold (0.7%) for BA1, and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.35, which is below the threshold of 0.5 indicating that the variant does not predict a damaging effect on ACADVL function (BP4). Due to conflicting evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance for VLCAD deficiency, as specified by the ClinGen ACADVL Variant Curation Expert Panel: PP4, BA1, BP4 (ACADVL VCEP specifications version 1; approved November 9, 2021). This variant was originally curated September 23, 2022 and the recurated classification was approved by the expert panel on April 23, 2024.
