Genes affected

SOD1 (HGNC:11179): (superoxide dismutase 1) The protein encoded by this gene binds copper and zinc ions and is one of two isozymes responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally-occuring but harmful superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The other isozyme is a mitochondrial protein. In addition, this protein contains an antimicrobial peptide that displays antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-MRSA activity against E. coli, E. faecalis, S. aureus, S. aureus MRSA LPV+, S. agalactiae, and yeast C. krusei. Mutations in this gene have been implicated as causes of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Rare transcript variants have been reported for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 2 uncertain in NM_000454.5
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr21-31659782-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 873321.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995
• PP5: Variant 21-31659782-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-31659782-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 14765.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 1 Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Nov 23, 2022	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Ala5 amino acid residue in SOD1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7951249, 8351519, 19176896, 19618436). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SOD1 function (PMID: 8179602, 17543992, 21257910, 23280792, 26362407). 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 SOD1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14765). This variant is also known as p.Ala4Thr. This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PMID: 8179602, 12792143, 17543992, 22292843). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 5 of the SOD1 protein (p.Ala5Thr). -
