Genes affected
ARSA (HGNC:713): (arylsulfatase A) The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Metachromatic leukodystrophy Pathogenic:3Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJun 29, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 214 of the ARSA protein (p.Ala214Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs199476341, gnomAD 0.003%). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Ala214 amino acid residue in ARSA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7906588, 9090526, 9192271, 14517960). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ARSA protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 196275). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 30057904). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchGenetics Department, Hospital Ramon y Cajal-IRYCISSep 20, 2024Variant c.640G>A (p.Ala214Thr) was evaluated according to ACMG/AMP guidelines and classified as likely pathogenic : PM1, PM2, PM5. The variant is located in a mutational hotspot without benign variation (PM1), it was identified at very low frequency in the gnomAD or 1000 Genome databases (PM2). The variant also is a novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different pathogenic missense change has been reported (ClinVar variant RCV001380269.7). In addition, it has been previously reported as pathogenic in trans with another pathogenic allele, c.893G>T (p.Gly298Val) (PMID:30057904). -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 13, 2024Variant summary: ARSA c.640G>A (p.Ala214Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the sulfatase, N-terminal domain (IPR000917) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250630 control chromosomes. c.640G>A has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in individuals affected with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (e.g. Chen_2018, Santhanakumaran_2022). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.641C>T, p.Ala214Val), supporting the critical relevance of codon 214 to ARSA protein function. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30057904, 36240581). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 196275). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
