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.

This sequence change replaces proline with alanine at codon 85 of the FARS2 protein (p.Pro85Ala). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between proline and alanine. 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. This variant has been reported to affect FARS2 protein function (PMID: 27095821). This variant has been observed in combination with another FARS2 variant in an individual affected with juvenile onset refractory epilepsy and progressive myoclonus (PMID: 27095821). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 587669). This variant is present in population databases (rs770035560, ExAC 0.002%). -
