Genes affected
GARS1 (HGNC:4162): (glycyl-tRNA synthetase 1) This gene encodes glycyl-tRNA synthetase, one of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded enzyme is an (alpha)2 dimer which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 17, 2022Reported as a variant of unknown significance in individuals tested by an outside laboratory suspected of having Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (DiVincenzo et al., 2014; Nam et al., 2021; Volodarsky et al., 2021); Identified previously in the heterozygous state in two individuals with neuropathy (Antoniadi et al., 2015; Apellniz-Ruiz et al., 2017); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27582484, 28166811, 34813128, 32028661, 34426522, 29520015, 32376792, 25614874, 26392352) -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 17, 2023This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 21, 2024Variant summary: GARS1 c.302G>A (p.Arg101His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the WHEP-TRS domain (IPR000738) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00031 in 280760 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.302G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with neuropathy, CMT, or ALS without strong evidence of causality (e.g. Antoniadi_2015, Apellaniz-Ruiz_2017, Pensato_2020, Volodarsky_2021, Nam_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with GARS1-Related Disorders. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant does not result in aberrant GlyRS-HDAC6 interaction (Mo_2018). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26392352, 27582484, 29520015, 32028661, 32376792, 34813128). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 245685). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Distal spinal muscular atrophy Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
