Genes affected

ASL (HGNC:746): (argininosuccinate lyase) This gene encodes a member of the lyase 1 family. The encoded protein forms a cytosolic homotetramer and primarily catalyzes the reversible hydrolytic cleavage of argininosuccinate into arginine and fumarate, an essential step in the liver in detoxifying ammonia via the urea cycle. Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive disorder argininosuccinic aciduria, or argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. A nontranscribed pseudogene is also located on the long arm of chromosome 22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 19) in uniprot entity ARLY_HUMAN there are 4 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000048.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.974

Argininosuccinate lyase deficiency Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Counsyl	Feb 02, 2018	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Aug 15, 2022	This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 70 of the ASL protein (p.Val70Ala). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (PMID: 24166829). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550394). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In 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. -
