Genes affected
FARS2 (HGNC:21062): (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a protein that transfers phenylalanine to its cognate tRNA. This protein localizes to the mitochondrion and plays a role in mitochondrial protein translation. Mutations in this gene can cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 14 (Alpers encephalopathy). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

p.Thr407Met (ACG>ATG): c.1220 C>T in exon 7 of the FARS2 gene (NM_006567.3). The T407M variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The T407M variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity and size. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, this variant is a strong candidate for a pathogenic mutation, however the possibility that it is a benign variant cannot be excluded. The variant is found in MITONUC-MITOP panel(s). -

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

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 407 of the FARS2 protein (p.Thr407Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs372054960, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FARS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 214331). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FARS2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
