Genes affected
ARSA (HGNC:713): (arylsulfatase A) The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: The ARSA c.960G>A (p.Trp320X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent ARSA protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Multiple publications have cited the variant in affected individuals (varying degrees of onset: late-infantile, juvenile, and adult), who were compound heterozygotes or homozygotes, with significantly lower to nondetectable ARSA enzymatic activity. Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as "pathogenic." -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp320*) in the ARSA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ARSA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8962139, 10477432). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 11020646, 26553228, 30057904). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as W318X. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495883). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
