Genes affected
ALAS2 (HGNC:397): (5'-aminolevulinate synthase 2) The product of this gene specifies an erythroid-specific mitochondrially located enzyme. The encoded protein catalyzes the first step in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Defects in this gene cause X-linked pyridoxine-responsive sideroblastic anemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_000032.5
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrnull-null-null-null is described in UniProt as null.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.757
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000155 (17/1093260) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.00017 (9/52961). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000886. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 8 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 06, 2022In 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. 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ALAS2 protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALAS2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs778388971, gnomAD 0.03%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 560 of the ALAS2 protein (p.Arg560Cys). -
