Genes affected
QARS1 (HGNC:9751): (glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. In metazoans, 9 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases specific for glutamine (gln), glutamic acid (glu), and 7 other amino acids are associated within a multienzyme complex. Although present in eukaryotes, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (QARS) is absent from many prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, in which Gln-tRNA(Gln) is formed by transamidation of the misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln). Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoMar 30, 2021QARS NM_005051.2 exon 1 p.Leu9Ile (c.25C>A): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.8% (89/10620) of Finnish alleles including 1 homozygote, as well as 1 homozygote in the South Asian population in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/3-49104709-G-T?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:384247) with classifications ranging from Benign to Variant of Uncertain Significance. Evolutionary conservation suggests that this variant may impact the protein; computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant suggests that this variant does not cause disease, but requires further evidence. Therefore this variant is classified as likely benign. -
