ClinGen Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV000786917 SCV002600181 likely pathogenic Creatine transporter deficiency 2022-06-06 reviewed by expert panel curation The NM_005629.4:c.626_627del (p.Pro209ArgfsTer87) variant in SLC6A8 is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). It was identified by clinical exome sequencing in one male proband with developmental delay and seizures, and his similarly affected brother. (PMID 32434645). While these clinical features are consistent with a diagnosis of creatine transporter deficiency, more data to support this diagnosis, such as elevated urine creatine and reduced creatine on brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy, are not available (PP4 is not met). The variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 635461). The classification of this variant has been upgraded from Variant of Uncertain Significance to Likely Pathogenic based on the recommendations of the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation Working Group, that a variant meeting PVS1 and PM2_Supporting is classified as Likely Pathogenic (https://clinicalgenome.org/site/assets/files/5182/pm2_-_svi_recommendation_-_approved_sept2020.pdf ). SLC6A8-specific ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP (Specifications Version 1.1.0): PVS1, PM2_Supporting. (Classification approved by the ClinGen CCDS VCEP on June 6, 2022).

Invitae RCV000786917 SCV002197826 pathogenic Creatine transporter deficiency 2023-07-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 635461). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro209Argfs*87) in the SLC6A8 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC6A8 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22281021). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with creatine transporter deficiency (PMID: 32434645).
