Genes affected
ASS1 (HGNC:758): (argininosuccinate synthase 1) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the penultimate step of the arginine biosynthetic pathway. There are approximately 10 to 14 copies of this gene including the pseudogenes scattered across the human genome, among which the one located on chromosome 9 appears to be the only functional gene for argininosuccinate synthetase. Mutations in the chromosome 9 copy of this gene cause citrullinemia. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 02, 2024Variant summary: ASS1 c.-5-5G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 250114 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ASS1 causing Citrullinemia Type I (5.2e-05 vs 0.0041), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.-5-5G>A in individuals affected with Citrullinemia Type I and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
