Description
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 339 of the SLC37A4 protein (p.Gly339Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs80356490, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glycogen storage disease (PMID: 9428641, 9758626, 10482962, 10923042). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It is commonly reported in individuals of European ancestry (PMID: 9428641, 9758626, 10482962, 10923042). This variant is also known as c.1184G>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6921). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SLC37A4 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC37A4 function (PMID: 12444104). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
