Invitae RCV000550200 SCV000631823 uncertain significance Dystonia 5; GTP cyclohydrolase I deficiency 2018-01-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a GCH1-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change disrupts the translational stop signal of the GCH1 mRNA. It is expected to extend the length of the GCH1 protein by 35 additional amino acid residues. A different missense substitution affecting this stop codon (p.*251Argext*35) has been shown to segregate with disease in a family affected with dopa-responsive dystonia (PMID: 12707079). This suggests that stop loss variants may impact GCH1 protein function. In summary, this variant has uncertain impact on GCH1 function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
