Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BP4_StrongBP6BS1

The NM_005051.3(QARS1):​c.1760C>T​(p.Ser587Phe) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0001 in 1,613,562 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/24 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S587S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
QARS1 (HGNC:9751): (glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase 1) 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. In metazoans, 9 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases specific for glutamine (gln), glutamic acid (glu), and 7 other amino acids are associated within a multienzyme complex. Although present in eukaryotes, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (QARS) is absent from many prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, in which Gln-tRNA(Gln) is formed by transamidation of the misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln). Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.02154252).
BP6
Variant 3-49098988-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr3-49098988-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 409245.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000545 (83/152204) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.00197 (82/41534). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00163. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 40 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
