Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_000487.6(ARSA):c.370G>A(p.Gly124Ser) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000999 in 1,601,472 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 Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G124C) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Metachromatic leukodystrophy Pathogenic:4Other:1
Homozygous status for variant c.370G>A (p.Gly124Ser) in exon 2 of the ARSB gene. This variant has not been reported in 1000 genomes and has MAF of 0.0014% in gnomAD databases. The in-silico prediction of the variant is deleterious by SIFT, Mutation Taster, FATHM and DANN. The reference codon is conserved across species. In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 124 of the ARSA protein (p.Gly124Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs74315461, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ARSA-related conditions (PMID: 7902317, 7981715, 31130284). This variant is also known as c.364G>A (p.Gly122Ser). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3063). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ARSA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ARSA function (PMID: 7902317). This variant disrupts the p.Gly124 amino acid residue in ARSA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19021637). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: ARSA c.370G>A (p.Gly124Ser), also reported as p.Gly122Ser, results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.4e-05 in 216762 control chromosomes. c.370G>A has been reported in the literature in the presumed compound heterozygous or homozygous state in mulitple individuals affected with clinical features of Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (example, (e.g. Honke_1993, Kappler_1994, Wang_2016, Monies_2019, Hong_2020). Publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, demonstrating absent protein product in an in vitro expression system (Honke_1993), and less than 1% of normal activity in patient derived cells (Hong_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31922725, 7902317, 7981715, 31130284, 27779215). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3063). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The ARSA c.370G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly124Ser. This variant has been reported in the homozygous, compound heterozygous, and heterozygous states (with no second variant found) in individuals with autosomal recessive metachromatic leukodystrophy (Kappler et al. 1994. PubMed ID: 7981715; Monies et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31130284; Hou et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31980526; Honke et al. 1993. PubMed ID: 7902317). Functional studies support its pathogenicity (Honke et al. 1993. PubMed ID: 7902317). This variant is reported in 0.0063% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/22-51065689-C-T). We classify this variant as likely pathogenic. -
