Genes affected
KARS1 (HGNC:6215): (lysyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. Lysyl-tRNA synthetase is a homodimer localized to the cytoplasm which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 13, 2022The c.1819_1821delAAG (p.K607del) alteration is located in exon 15 (coding exon 14) of the KARS gene. This alteration consists of an in-frame deletion of 3 nucleotides between nucleotide positions c.1819 and c.1821, resulting in the deletion of 1 residue. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 16, 2020The p.Lys607del variant in KARS has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss but has been identified in 0.01% (16/113534) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is a deletion of 1 amino acid at position 607 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. It is unclear if this deletion will impact the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting, PM4_Supporting. -
