Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 14P and 1B. PM1PM2PM5PP5_Very_StrongBP4

The NM_001083614.2(EARS2):​c.320G>A​(p.Arg107His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000168 in 1,605,774 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R107C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
EARS2 (HGNC:29419): (glutamyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a member of the class I family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These enzymes play a critical role in protein biosynthesis by charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. This protein is encoded by the nuclear genome but is likely to be imported to the mitochondrion where it is thought to catalyze the ligation of glutamate to tRNA molecules. Mutations in this gene have been associated with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 12 (COXPD12). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_001083614.2
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-23544680-G-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 973188.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
PP5
Variant 16-23544679-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-23544679-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 449533.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.21801662). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
