Genes affected
ASL (HGNC:746): (argininosuccinate lyase) This gene encodes a member of the lyase 1 family. The encoded protein forms a cytosolic homotetramer and primarily catalyzes the reversible hydrolytic cleavage of argininosuccinate into arginine and fumarate, an essential step in the liver in detoxifying ammonia via the urea cycle. Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive disorder argininosuccinic aciduria, or argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. A nontranscribed pseudogene is also located on the long arm of chromosome 22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: ASL c.284G>A (p.Arg95His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fumarate lyase, N-terminal of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 242806 control chromosomes in GnomAD. c.284G>A has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in three individuals affected with Argininosuccinic Aciduria (Balmer_2014). In those patients, the second alleles were different and have been evaluated likely pathogenic/pathogenic in ClinVar. c.284G>A has also been included in newborn screening test set (Adhikari_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Additionally, other variant at the Arg95 residue (c.283C>T/p.Arg95Cys) has been reported pathogenic/likely pathogenic with functional evidence in ClinVar, suggesting that this codon is functionally important. 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: 24166829, 32778825). Two other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (pathogenic, n=1 and VUS, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 95 of the ASL protein (p.Arg95His). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (PMID: 24166829). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558314). 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 ASL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg95 amino acid residue in ASL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 2263616, 9045711, 25778938, 26745957). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
