Genes affected
GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000512.5
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-88835240-C-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 379921.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.962
PP5
Variant 16-88835240-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-88835240-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 707.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
