Genes affected
NARS2 (HGNC:26274): (asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a putative member of the class II family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These enzymes play a critical role in protein biosynthesis by charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. This protein is encoded by the nuclear genome but is likely to be imported to the mitochondrion where it is thought to catalyze the ligation of asparagine to tRNA molecules. Mutations in this gene have been associated with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 24 (COXPD24). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 28, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg436*) in the NARS2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 42 amino acid(s) of the NARS2 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs751383065, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NARS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 817534). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 17, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation as the last 42 amino acids are lost, although loss-of-function variants have not been reported downstream of this position in the protein; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 27, 2024Variant summary: NARS2 c.1306C>T (p.Arg436X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 250968 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1306C>T in individuals affected with Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency 24 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Variants downstream of this position have not been classified as pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 817534). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
