Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000375428 SCV000482066 pathogenic G6PD deficiency 2019-04-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The G6PD c.1376G>T (p.Arg459Leu) missense variant, also described as G6PD Canton, is one of the most common glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency variants in certain Asian populations. Across a selection of the available literature, the p.Arg459Leu variant was observed in 116 G6PD deficiency cases, mostly in individuals of Chinese ancestry (Stevens et al. 1990; Tang et al. 1992; Cai et al. 2000; Deng et al. 2007; Phompradit et al. 2011; Yang et al. 2014). Control data are unavailable for the p.Arg459Leu variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.01061 in the East Asian population of the Genome Aggregation Database including 42 hemizygotes in this population and 43 hemizygotes in the total population. Based on the evidence, the p.Arg459Leu variant is classified as pathogenic for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.

Invitae RCV000174272 SCV000768476 pathogenic Anemia, nonspherocytic hemolytic, due to G6PD deficiency 2024-01-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 459 of the G6PD protein (p.Arg459Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs72554665, gnomAD 1.0%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with glucose-6-phosphate deficiency (PMID: 1562739, 2263506, 6714986, 8537082, 10643148, 11499668, 17726510, 20203002, 21446359, 25541721, 25775246, 26823837). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as Canton variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 100058). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on G6PD protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects G6PD function (PMID: 16607506). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000756195 SCV000883924 pathogenic not provided 2021-11-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The G6PD c.1376G>T; p.Arg459Leu variant (rs72554665) is reported in the literature in the hemizygous, homozygous, and compound heterozygous states in individuals of East Asian descent affected with G6PD deficiency (Fu 2018, Stevens 1990, Tang 1992). Individuals carrying this variant have been shown to have G6PD enzymatic activity lower than levels found in the general Chinese population (Tang 1992) and this variant has been reported in 27.5% of positive newborn screens for G6PD deficiency in Guangxi, China (Fu 2018). The variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 100058), and it is found in the East Asian population with an overall allele frequency of 1.1% (157/14796 alleles with 42 hemizygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 459 is moderately conserved and is located in the dehydrogenase domain. Additionally, another missense variant at the same amino acid (p.Arg459Pro) has been observed in individuals with G6PD deficiency and is considered pathogenic (Calabro 1993). Based on available information, the p.Arg459Leu variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Calabro V et al.
