Genes affected

AARS1 (HGNC:20): (alanyl-tRNA synthetase 1) The human alanyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) belongs to a family of tRNA synthases, of the class II enzymes. Class II tRNA synthases evolved early in evolution and are highly conserved. This is reflected by the fact that 498 of the 968-residue polypeptide human AARS shares 41% identity witht the E.coli protein. tRNA synthases are the enzymes that interpret the RNA code and attach specific aminoacids to the tRNAs that contain the cognate trinucleotide anticodons. They consist of a catalytic domain which interacts with the amino acid acceptor-T psi C helix of the tRNA, and a second domain which interacts with the rest of the tRNA structure.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.S957C variant (also known as c.2870C>G), located in coding exon 20 of the AARS gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 2870. The serine at codon 957 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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 not expected to disrupt AARS protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 565349). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with AARS-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 957 of the AARS protein (p.Ser957Cys). 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Ser957Cys variant has not been reported in the medical literature, is not listed in gene-specific variant databases, nor has it been previously identified in our laboratory. It is listed in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) browser with an overall frequency of 0.0004% (identified in 1 out of 246,202 chromosomes). The serine at codon 957 is moderately conserved considering 15 species (Alamut software v2.9), and computational analyses return mixed results regarding the effect of this variant on AARS protein structure/function (SIFT: damaging, PolyPhen2: possibly damaging, and Mutation Taster: polymorphism). Thus, based on the available information, the clinical significance of the p.Ser957Cys variant cannot be determined with certainty. -
