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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.969

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 457 of the CTSA protein (p.Gly457Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs137854547, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with galactosialidosis (PMID: 8968752). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 385). 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 CTSA protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CTSA function (PMID: 8968752). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
