Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_015665.6(AAAS):c.934C>T(p.Arg312*) variant causes a stop gained, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000372 in 1,614,144 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg312*) in the AAAS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AAAS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11159947). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918547, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with achalasia-addisonianism-alacrimia syndrome (PMID: 11062474, 29255950). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5039). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29255950, 11062474) -
