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]

Variant summary: ASS1 c.920G>A (p.Arg307His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the catalytic/multimerization domain (IPR024074) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251430 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected 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.920G>A in individuals affected with Citrullinemia Type I and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Citrullinemia Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 307 of the ASS1 protein (p.Arg307His). This variant is present in population databases (rs571576756, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ASS1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 528371). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. This variant disrupts the p.Arg307 amino acid residue in ASS1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 14680976; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

ASS1-related disorder Uncertain:1

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The ASS1 c.920G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg307His. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.020% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Of note, a different substitution affecting the same amino acid residue (c.919C>T, p.Arg307Cys) has reported to be pathogenic for autosomal recessive citrullinemia (Haberle et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 14680976; Diez-Fernandez et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28111830). At this time, the clinical significance of the c.920G>A (p.Arg307His) variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
