Genes affected

ARSA (HGNC:713): (arylsulfatase A) The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 22-50626256-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-50626256-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 558645.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr22-50626256-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg293*) in the ARSA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ARSA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8962139, 10477432). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 26553228, 31069529). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558645). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
