GeneDx	RCV000081315	SCV000514329	benign	not specified	2016-10-06	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Consensus agreement among computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing, with 3/4 computational tools predicting the variant abolishes a cryptic exonic 5' donor site. Experimental evidence suggests that this variant may affect mRNA splicing as transcripts from peripheral blood mononuclear cells showed the inclusion of intron 6 and an altered reading frame (Garcia-Consuegra_2016). In muscle tissue, the normal transcript can be identified, although with an expression of only 5% relative to controls, suggesting a "leaky" splice effect (Garcia-Consuegra_2009). However, in both studies splicing was examined in samples from compound heterozygous patients with Glycogen Storage Disease Type V and to our knowledge, the variant effect on splicing has yet to be investigated in isolation in a controlled experimental system. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0084 in 1614182 control chromosomes, including 73 homozygotes, in the gnomAD database, predominantly at a frequency of 0.01 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals is approximately 3-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PYGM causing Glycogen Storage Disease, Type V (0.0035), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. Nevertheless, c.645G>A has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with Glycogen Storage Disease, Type V (Garcia-Consuegra_2009, Lucia_2012). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22250184, 34426522, 26913921, 19251976). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 with conflicting assessments. Four submitters have classified the variant as benign/likely benign, three classified it as VUS and one as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
Ambry Genetics	RCV003298135	SCV004007190	likely benign	Inborn genetic diseases	2023-05-23	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
