Genes affected

FARS2 (HGNC:21062): (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a protein that transfers phenylalanine to its cognate tRNA. This protein localizes to the mitochondrion and plays a role in mitochondrial protein translation. Mutations in this gene can cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 14 (Alpers encephalopathy). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -21 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.91).
• BP6: Variant 6-5368672-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr6-5368672-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 137288.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-3.79 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00912 (1389/152252) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.0434 (209/4812). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0386. There are 20 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 728 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 20 AR gene
