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]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1819_1821delAAG (p.K607del) alteration is located in exon 15 (coding exon 14) of the KARS gene. This alteration consists of an in-frame deletion of 3 nucleotides between nucleotide positions c.1819 and c.1821, resulting in the deletion of 1 residue. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Lys607del variant in KARS has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss but has been identified in 0.01% (16/113534) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is a deletion of 1 amino acid at position 607 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. It is unclear if this deletion will impact the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting, PM4_Supporting. -
