Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV005221905 SCV005866593 uncertain significance Dystonia 5; GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency 2024-07-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 178 of the GCH1 protein (p.Arg178Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GCH1-related conditions. 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 GCH1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg178 amino acid residue in GCH1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15753436; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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.
