Genes affected
CARS2 (HGNC:25695): (cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a putative member of the class I family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These enzymes play a critical role in protein biosynthesis by charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. This protein is encoded by the nuclear genome but is likely to be imported to the mitochondrion where it is thought to catalyze the ligation of cysteine to tRNA molecules. A splice-site mutation in this gene has been associated with a novel progressive myoclonic epilepsy disease with similar symptoms to MERRF syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2017]

Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00065 in 251442 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0087 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. To our knowledge, c.1632C>A has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Defect Type 27 and no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26257172). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, classifying the variant as uncertain significance (n=1) or likely benign (n=2).
