Genes affected
GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 30, 2017Variant summary: The GALNS c.708C>T (p.His236His) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a polymorphism outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may affect ESE sites at the locus. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 76918/277000 control chromosomes (509 homozygotes) at a frequency of 0.2776823, which is approximately 136 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic GALNS variant (0.0020412), strongly suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -
Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-IV-A Benign:3
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 12, 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. -
