Genes affected
CTSA (HGNC:9251): (cathepsin A) This gene encodes a member of the peptidase S10 family of serine carboxypeptidases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate two chains that comprise the heterodimeric active enzyme. This enzyme possesses deamidase, esterase and carboxypeptidase activities and acts as a scaffold in the lysosomal multienzyme complex. Mutations in this gene are associated with galactosialidosis.

Combined deficiency of sialidase AND beta galactosidase Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 27, 2023This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 267 of the CTSA protein (p.Tyr267Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs137854544, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with galactosialidosis (PMID: 8514852, 8968752, 22386972, 24769197; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 381). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CTSA function (PMID: 8514852, 8968752, 10333491, 10944848). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 03, 2023Variant summary: CTSA c.745T>A (p.Tyr249Asn) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251316 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.745T>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Galactosialidosis (Zhou_1996, Shimmoto_1993, Lehman_2012, Prada_2014), and some were reported as compound heterozygous with other pathogenic variants. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding disruption in lysosomal compartmentalization, substantially reduced cathepsin A activity, and more modest reductions in beta-galactosidase and alpha-neuraminidase activity (Zhou_1996, Shimmoto_1993, Takiguchi_2000). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8968752, 8514852, 22386972, 10944848, 24769197). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
