Genes affected
IARS2 (HGNC:29685): (isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAS, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. Two forms of isoleucine-tRNA synthetase exist, a cytoplasmic form and a mitochondrial form. This gene encodes the mitochondrial isoleucine-tRNA synthetase which belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Variant summary: IARS2 c.2122G>A (p.Glu708Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, class Ia domain (IPR002300) of the encoded protein sequence. 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 0.0013 in 251460 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.003 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in IARS2 causing Cataract-Growth Hormone Deficiency-Sensory Neuropathy-Sensorineural Hearing Loss-Skeletal Dysplasia Syndrome phenotype. c.2122G>A has been reported in the literature in the presumed compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with clinical features of IARS2-related conditions, however the the population frequency of this variant is not in pathogenic range. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with IARS2-related conditions. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33327715, 33972171, 25130867). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 156552). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
