ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000174271 SCV000603772 pathogenic not provided 2021-10-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The G6PD c.1388G>A; p.Arg463His variant (rs72554664), also known as G6PD Kaiping, is reported in the literature as a common G6PD deficiency variant in Asian populations (Chiu 1991, Fu 2018, Li 1998, Nuchprayoon 2002). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 100059), and is found in the East Asian population with an allele frequency of 0.70% (104/14782 alleles, including 32 hemizygotes and a single homozygote) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 463 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Additionally, other variants at this codon (c.1387C>T; p.Arg463Cys, c.1387C>A; p.Arg462Ser) have been reported in individuals with G6PD deficiency (Hirono 1997, Rodrigues 2002). Based on available information, the p.Arg463His variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Chiu DT et al. Two commonly occurring nucleotide base substitutions in Chinese G6PD variants.

Invitae RCV000823393 SCV000964252 pathogenic Anemia, nonspherocytic hemolytic, due to G6PD deficiency 2024-01-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 463 of the G6PD protein (p.Arg463His). This variant is present in population databases (rs72554664, gnomAD 0.7%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been described as a common cause of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in southeast Asia, although it has also been reported in affected individuals from other populations (PMID: 9589612, 30315739, 17726510, 21446359, 15906717, 15223006, 20236109). This variant is also known as Kaiping. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 100059). 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 G6PD protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000991190 SCV004014652 pathogenic G6PD deficiency 2023-04-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The G6PD c.1478G>A (p.Arg493His) variant, also known as c.1388G>A (p.Arg463His), or G6PD Kaiping, is a missense variant. In the literature, this variant is reported as one of the most common pathogenic variants associated with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in the East Asian population (PMID: 36949502; 33051526). The highest frequency of this allele in the Genome Aggregation Database is 0.007036 in the East Asian population (version 2.1.1). This frequency is high but is consistent with disease prevalence estimates. Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest the variant may impact the gene or gene product. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by at least twelve submitters in ClinVar. Based on the available evidence, the c.1478G>A (p.Arg493His) variant is classified as pathogenic for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

Molecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne Hospital RCV000823393 SCV004812458 pathogenic Anemia, nonspherocytic hemolytic, due to G6PD deficiency 2022-08-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change in G6PD is predicted to replace arginine with histidine at codon 463, p.(Arg463His). The arginine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the C-terminal glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase domain. There is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and histidine. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 is 0.7% (104/14,782 alleles, 1 homozygote, 32 hemizygotes) in the East Asian population. This variant is the most common cause of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in China (also known as Kaiping). It has been detected in hemizygous in affected males and compound heterozygous with a second pathogenic variant or homozygous in affected females. Individuals with this variant display reduced G6PD activity in their cells, with female heterozygous carriers demonstrating moderate deficiency (PMID: 33051526). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (6/6 algorithms). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.5.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PM3_VeryStrong, PP3, PP4.
