Genes affected
RARS2 (HGNC:21406): (arginyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This nuclear gene encodes a protein that localizes to the mitochondria, where it catalyzes the transfer of L-arginine to its cognate tRNA, an important step in translation of mitochondrially-encoded proteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 6 (PCH6). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 20, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 560 of the RARS2 protein (p.Arg560His). This variant is present in population databases (rs756502974, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of RARS2-related conditions (PMID: 31618753, 31665838, 35068129; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215071). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt RARS2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
