Genes affected
DARS1 (HGNC:2678): (aspartyl-tRNA synthetase 1) This gene encodes a member of a multienzyme complex that functions in mediating the attachment of amino acids to their cognate tRNAs. The encoded protein ligates L-aspartate to tRNA(Asp). Mutations in this gene have been found in patients showing hypomyelination with brainstem and spinal cord involvement and leg spasticity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0105 - The mechanism of disease for this gene is not clearly established; however, loss of function is likely (PMID: 27816769). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Intrafamilial variability has been described regarding symptom severity and MRI findings in a family with three affected siblings (Ong et al. 2020). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to glycine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition [v2 and v3(non-v2)]: 14 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated tRNA synthetases class II domain (DECIPHER). (I) 0704 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have limited previous evidence for pathogenicity. Two alternative changes, p.(Arg494Cys) and p.(Arg494His), have been reported as VUS and likely pathogenic in ClinVar, respectively. Additionally, p.(Arg494Cys) has also been reported in two compound heterozygous siblings with hypomyelination with brain stem and spinal cord involvement and leg spasticity (PMID: 23643384). (SP) 0803 - This variant has limited previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in a compound heterozygous state with other missense variants in two families with DARS-related features (PMID: 23643384, Ong et al. 2020). (SP) 0901 - This variant has strong evidence for segregation with disease. This variant has been identified in a compound heterozygous state in two unrelated families with multiple affected siblings (PMID: 23643384, Ong et al. 2020). (SP) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1205 - This variant has been shown to be maternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
