Genes affected

ASL (HGNC:746): (argininosuccinate lyase) This gene encodes a member of the lyase 1 family. The encoded protein forms a cytosolic homotetramer and primarily catalyzes the reversible hydrolytic cleavage of argininosuccinate into arginine and fumarate, an essential step in the liver in detoxifying ammonia via the urea cycle. Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive disorder argininosuccinic aciduria, or argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. A nontranscribed pseudogene is also located on the long arm of chromosome 22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 247 of the ASL protein (p.Ser247Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (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: 459922). 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 ASL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: ASL c.740C>T (p.Ser247Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fumarate lyase, N-terminal domain (IPR022761) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250634 control chromosomes. c.740C>T has been observed in individual(s) affected with or with clinical features of Argininosuccinic Aciduria (internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 459922). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
