Genes affected
MOCS1 (HGNC:7190): (molybdenum cofactor synthesis 1) Molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis is a conserved pathway leading to the biological activation of molybdenum. The protein encoded by this gene is involved in this pathway. This gene was originally thought to produce a bicistronic mRNA with the potential to produce two proteins (MOCS1A and MOCS1B) from adjacent open reading frames. However, only the first open reading frame (MOCS1A) has been found to encode a protein from the putative bicistronic mRNA, whereas additional splice variants are likely to produce a fusion between the two open reading frames. This gene is defective in patients with molybdenum cofactor deficiency, type A. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 16. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2017]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

The c.853G>A (p.E285K) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the MOCS1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 853, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 285 to be replaced by a lysine (K). The p.E285K alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The MOCS1 p.Glu285Lys variant was identified in 1 of 52 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.019) from individuals with a known or suspected mitochondrial disorder, however the variant was suggested to be benign (Vasta_2012_PMID:22494076). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs140243105), ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Illumina, Fulgent Genetics, CeGaT Praxis fuer Humangenetik Tuebingen and Genomic Research Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences; classified as likely benign by Mendelics when found in combination with the p.E285K variant) and LOVD 3.0 (classified as likely benign). The variant was identified in control databases in 210 of 282890 chromosomes (3 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.0007423 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: Other in 8 of 7226 chromosomes (freq: 0.001107), European (non-Finnish) in 138 of 129192 chromosomes (freq: 0.001068), Latino in 37 of 35440 chromosomes (freq: 0.001044), South Asian in 20 of 30616 chromosomes (freq: 0.000653), Ashkenazi Jewish in 4 of 10370 chromosomes (freq: 0.000386), African in 2 of 24968 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), European (Finnish) in 1 of 25124 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), but was not observed in the East Asian population. The p.Glu285 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign. -
