Genes affected

DARS2 (HGNC:25538): (aspartyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. It is a mitochondrial enzyme that specifically aminoacylates aspartyl-tRNA. Mutations in this gene are associated with leukoencephalopathy with brainstem and spinal cord involvement and lactate elevation (LBSL). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Institute of Medical Genetics and Applied Genomics, University Hospital Tübingen	Oct 23, 2020	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Mar 17, 2023	In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24566671, 17384640, 33977142, 32571458, 35598585, 34405109) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Aug 31, 2022	This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with leukoencephalopathy with brain stem and spinal cord involvement and lactate elevation (PMID: 17384640, 24030952, 24566671, 32571458, 33977142). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918210, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 179 of the DARS2 protein (p.Arg179His). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg179 amino acid residue in DARS2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 33977142). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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 DARS2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1064). -
