Description
This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (PMID: 25956449, 28856607, 32369189). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects DDC function (PMID: 31953134). 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 DDC protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 973440). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 96 of the DDC protein (p.Gly96Arg).
