NM_020442.6:c.1168G>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 1P and 2B. PP5BP4BS1_Supporting

The NM_020442.6(VARS2):​c.1168G>A​(p.Ala390Thr) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000183 in 1,540,782 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Genes affected
VARS2 (HGNC:21642): (valyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, which catalyzes the attachment of valine to tRNA(Val) for mitochondrial translation. Mutations in this gene cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency-20, and are also associated with early-onset mitochondrial encephalopathies. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points.

PP5
Variant 6-30920091-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-30920091-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 522814.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.10521114). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000374 (57/152304) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.00235 (36/15308). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00175. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 32 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
