Genes affected
VARS1 (HGNC:12651): (valyl-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. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family and is located in the class III region of the major histocompatibility complex. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the VARS1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 14 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 12 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.6849 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.4812 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to combined oxidative phosphorylation defect type 20, neurodevelopmental disorder with microcephaly, seizures, and cortical atrophy.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.055498183).

The c.3478G>A (p.A1160T) alteration is located in exon 29 (coding exon 28) of the VARS gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3478, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 1160 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
