Genes affected

AARS1 (HGNC:20): (alanyl-tRNA synthetase 1) The human alanyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) belongs to a family of tRNA synthases, of the class II enzymes. Class II tRNA synthases evolved early in evolution and are highly conserved. This is reflected by the fact that 498 of the 968-residue polypeptide human AARS shares 41% identity witht the E.coli protein. tRNA synthases are the enzymes that interpret the RNA code and attach specific aminoacids to the tRNAs that contain the cognate trinucleotide anticodons. They consist of a catalytic domain which interacts with the amino acid acceptor-T psi C helix of the tRNA, and a second domain which interacts with the rest of the tRNA structure.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 751 of the AARS protein (p.Arg751Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs143370729, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 25817015, 33294374). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 29653220); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190103). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt AARS protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects AARS function (PMID: 25817015). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

AARS-related disorder

Rady Children's Institute for Genomic Medicine, Rady Children's Hospital San Diego

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has been previously reported in heterozygous, compound heterozygous or homozygous state in patients with AARS-related disorders (PMID: 25817015, 33294374, 29653220). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.005% (13/282822) and thus is presumed to be rare. This variant affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this variant reduces the normal function of the AARS protein (PMID: 25817015). Based on the available evidence, the c.2251A>G (p.Arg751Gly) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The AARS1 c.2251A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg751Gly. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous and homozygous state in individuals with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (Simons et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25817015). This variant has been reported in in the compound heterozygous in an individual with acute liver failure (Marten et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33294374). This variant has also been reported in an individual with autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (Table S5, Vaeth et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29653220). In addition, functional studies indicate this variant impairs the aminoacylation activity of the AARS protein (Simons et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25817015; Marten et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33294374). This variant is reported in 0.0093% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from uncertain to pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/190103/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

The p.R751G variant (also known as c.2251A>G), located in coding exon 15 of the AARS gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2251. The arginine at codon 751 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration was detected in an individual among a cohort of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease patients (Vaeth S et al. Eur J Med Genet, 2019 Jan;62:1-8). Furthermore, functional studies showed reduced aminoacylation activity in vitro (Simons C et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2015 Apr;96:675-81). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. However, based on data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a disease-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
