Characterizations

Gene GATM
Chromosomal Location 15q21.1
Allelic Variant 1 602360.0004; CEREBRAL CREATINE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME 3, AGAT DEFICIENCY
Identified Mutation IVS3+1G>T (c.484+1G>T); In a Chinese girl with cerebral creatine deficiency syndrome-3 (CCDS3; 612718), Ndika et al. (2012) identified a homozygous G-to-T transversion in intron 3 of the GATM gene (c.484+1G-T), resulting in a splice site and a truncated protein lacking exon 3 (Ala97ValfsTer11). The mutant transcript was subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Each unaffected parent was heterozygous for the mutation. GATM activity was not detectable in patient cells. The patient showed significant developmental progress after early and intense treatment with creatine supplementation.
