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]

In vivo and in vitro functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene product (low to null enzymatic activity in homozygotes; low in vitro enzymatic activity; PS3_moderate); the prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared with the prevalence in controls (PS4_strong); very low frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_moderate) -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 113 of the GALNS protein (p.Ile113Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs118204438, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (PMID: 7668283, 25137622; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 703). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GALNS protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GALNS function (PMID: 7668283). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The GALNS c.337A>T (p.Ile113Phe) missense variant is described as the second most frequently reported pathogenic variant, accounting for five percent of mucopolysaccharidosis type IV type A patient alleles (Morrone et al. 2014), and is especially common among patients of British and Irish descent. Across a selection of the available literature, the p.Ile113Phe variant has been identified in a homozygous state in two patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type IV, in a compound heterozygous state in 11 patients, and in a heterozygous state in six patients (Tomatsu et al. 1995; Yamada et al. 1998; Tomatsu et al. 2004; Dung et al. 2013; Bhattacharya et al. 2014). The p.Ile113Phe variant was absent from 300 control chromosomes (Tomatsu et al. 1995; Yamada et al. 1998; Tomatsu et al. 2004) and is reported at a frequency of 0.00012 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project; however, this frequency is based on one allele only in a region of good sequence coverage, suggesting the variant is rare. In vitro transient expression studies showed that the p.Ile113Phe variant reduced cDNA expression to approximately five percent of wild type (Tomatsu et al. 1995; Sukegawa et al. 2000). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Ile113Phe variant is classified as pathogenic for mucopolysaccharidosis type IV. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: GALNS c.337A>T (p.Ile113Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Sulfatase, N-terminal domain (IPR000917) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250984 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in GALNS causing Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVA (Morquio Syndrome A) (4e-05 vs 0.002), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.337A>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVA (Morquio Syndrome A) (Yamada_1998, Tomatsu_2004, Dung_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating the effects of the variant on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (Yamada_1998, Sukegawa_2000). Two ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
