Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong

The NM_000487.6(ARSA):c.1472G>A(p.Cys491Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C491G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 33)

Genes affected

ARSA (HGNC:713): (arylsulfatase A) The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr22-50625204-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 68122.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=2, not_provided=1, Pathogenic=1}.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.957

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided	research	Division of Human Genetics, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia	Jun 27, 2016	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Dec 02, 2021	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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ARSA protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 417892). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ARSA-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 491 of the ARSA protein (p.Cys491Tyr). -
