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.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 94 of the ASL protein (p.Arg94His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (PMID: 24166829). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550701). 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 expected to disrupt ASL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg94 amino acid residue in ASL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24166829, 26745957; 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 currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
