Genes affected

KARS1 (HGNC:6215): (lysyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. Lysyl-tRNA synthetase is a homodimer localized to the cytoplasm which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.83).
• BP6: Variant 16-75627869-G-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-75627869-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 320623.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00761 (1159/152348) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00917 (624/68040). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00858. There are 15 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 608 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 15 AR,Unknown gene
