ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV001803901 SCV003852680 pathogenic Creatine transporter deficiency 2023-02-23 reviewed by expert panel curation The NM_005629.4:c.1016+2T>C variant occurs within the canonical splice donor of intron 6 of SLC6A8. It is predicted to cause skipping of biologically-relevant-exon 6/13, resulting in a frameshift leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). Two male patients have been reported who are hemizygous for the variant (presumed to be different cases). One of these patients has profound intellectual disability, seizures, and elevated urine creatine/creatinine ratio (PMID 16738945) (PP4). There was "clinical suspicion" for a CCDS for the other patient., but results of follow up biochemical testing or brain magnetic resonance spectrscopy are not available (PMID 23660394). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 520792). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for X-linked creatine transporter deficiency. SLC6A8-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP (Specifications Verions 1.1.0): PVS1, PP4, PM2_Supporting. (Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on February 23, 2023).

Invitae RCV001803901 SCV002300940 likely pathogenic Creatine transporter deficiency 2021-05-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with SLC6A8-related conditions (PMID: 16738945, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 520792). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the SLC6A8 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in SLC6A8 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22281021).
