Genes affected
QARS1 (HGNC:9751): (glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. In metazoans, 9 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases specific for glutamine (gln), glutamic acid (glu), and 7 other amino acids are associated within a multienzyme complex. Although present in eukaryotes, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (QARS) is absent from many prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, in which Gln-tRNA(Gln) is formed by transamidation of the misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln). Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 02, 2021Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Diffuse cerebral and cerebellar atrophy - intractable seizures - progressive microcephaly syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 05, 2021In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Unavailable"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with QARS-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 424612). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine with valine at codon 473 of the QARS protein (p.Ala473Val). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and valine. -
