Genes affected
GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchLaboratory of Diagnosis and Therapy of Lysosomal Disorders, University of PadovaFeb 01, 2021The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared with the prevalence in controls (PS4_strong); very low frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_moderate) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 22, 2024This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 295 of the GALNS protein (p.Ser295Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs149239881, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (PMID: 9298823, 15235041, 27331011; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 520617). 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 GALNS protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
