Genes affected
ASL (HGNC:746): (argininosuccinate lyase) This gene encodes a member of the lyase 1 family. The encoded protein forms a cytosolic homotetramer and primarily catalyzes the reversible hydrolytic cleavage of argininosuccinate into arginine and fumarate, an essential step in the liver in detoxifying ammonia via the urea cycle. Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive disorder argininosuccinic aciduria, or argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. A nontranscribed pseudogene is also located on the long arm of chromosome 22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: ASL c.242T>C (p.Leu81Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fumarate lyase, N-terminal (IPR022761) 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 0.00017 in 247000 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ASL causing Argininosuccinic Aciduria (0.00017 vs 0.0042), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.242T>C in individuals affected with Argininosuccinic Aciduria and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 529427). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
