Genetic Variant ASAH1:p.Arg333Gly (chr8-18059385-G-C) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (20 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PS3PM1PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_177924.5(ASAH1):c.997C>G(p.Arg333Gly) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000204 in 1,614,174 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV004047227: Experimental studies have shown protein structural analysis on mutated amino acid sequence using HANSA and it is predicted that this change in sequence results in disruption in the conformation of the catalytic triad. (Bashyam et. al., 2014).". Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R333H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

ASAH1 (HGNC:735): (N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase 1) This gene encodes a member of the acid ceramidase family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed. Processing of this preproprotein generates alpha and beta subunits that heterodimerize to form the mature lysosomal enzyme, which catalyzes the degradation of ceramide into sphingosine and free fatty acid. This enzyme is overexpressed in multiple human cancers and may play a role in cancer progression. Mutations in this gene are associated with the lysosomal storage disorder, Farber lipogranulomatosis, and a neuromuscular disorder, spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy.
