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 submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Oct 30, 2017	Variant summary: The GALNS c.199C>A (p.Leu67Met) variant located in the Sulfatase, N-terminal (InterPro) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 5/5 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 8588/274128 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.327481 (7722/23580). This frequency is about 160 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic GALNS variant (0.0020412), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of African origin. A publication, Laradi_2006 found the variant of interest to co-occur with pathogenic GALNS variants. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	May 20, 2015	This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-IV-A

Benign:4

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 12, 2018	This 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. -
