Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM5 BS2

The NM_002047.4(GARS1):​c.1000A>G​(p.Ile334Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000372 in 1,614,004 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. I334F) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

GARS1 (HGNC:4162): (glycyl-tRNA synthetase 1) This gene encodes glycyl-tRNA synthetase, one of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded enzyme is an (alpha)2 dimer which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-30612214-A-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 5 AD gene.

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. This variant disrupts the p.Ile334 amino acid residue in GARS. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17101916, 24604904, 25168514). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1063149). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GARS-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 334 of the GARS protein (p.Ile334Val). -
