Genetic Variant GALNS:p.Pro151Thr (chr16-88837737-G-T) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (22 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000512.5(GALNS):c.451C>A(p.Pro151Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000031 in 1,613,860 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000399653: Functional studies in patient leukocytes demonstrated a reduction in protein levels and GALNS activity to less than 20% of wildtype (Lee et al. 2012).". Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P151L) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
