Genes affected
GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.74).
BP6
Variant 16-88835760-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-88835760-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 256335.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.226 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0082 (1250/152354) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0132 (898/68040). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0125. There are 9 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 574 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 9 AR gene
