Genes affected

ARG1 (HGNC:663): (arginase 1) Arginase catalyzes the hydrolysis of arginine to ornithine and urea. At least two isoforms of mammalian arginase exist (types I and II) which differ in their tissue distribution, subcellular localization, immunologic crossreactivity and physiologic function. The type I isoform encoded by this gene, is a cytosolic enzyme and expressed predominantly in the liver as a component of the urea cycle. Inherited deficiency of this enzyme results in argininemia, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hyperammonemia. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

ARG1 links:

MED23 (HGNC:2372): (mediator complex subunit 23) The activation of gene transcription is a multistep process that is triggered by factors that recognize transcriptional enhancer sites in DNA. These factors work with co-activators to direct transcriptional initiation by the RNA polymerase II apparatus. The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the CRSP (cofactor required for SP1 activation) complex, which, along with TFIID, is required for efficient activation by SP1. This protein is also a component of other multisubunit complexes e.g. thyroid hormone receptor-(TR-) associated proteins which interact with TR and facilitate TR function on DNA templates in conjunction with initiation factors and cofactors. This protein also acts as a metastasis suppressor. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the ARG1 gene (p.Lys313Serfs*22). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 10 amino acid(s) of the ARG1 protein and extend the protein by 11 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with arginase deficiency (internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 459925). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: ARG1 c.938delA (p.Lys313SerfsX22) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251050 control chromosomes. c.938delA has been reported in the literature in settings of exome sequencing in newborn screening for inborn errors of metabolism, however the exact clinical details, genotype, zygosity are not specified (example, Adhikari_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arginase Deficiency. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
