Genes affected
ACSL4 (HGNC:3571): (acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4) The protein encoded by this gene is an isozyme of the long-chain fatty-acid-coenzyme A ligase family. Although differing in substrate specificity, subcellular localization, and tissue distribution, all isozymes of this family convert free long-chain fatty acids into fatty acyl-CoA esters, and thereby play a key role in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid degradation. This isozyme preferentially utilizes arachidonate as substrate. The absence of this enzyme may contribute to the cognitive disability or Alport syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene generates multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 20, 2014The c.1561G>A (p.D521N) alteration is located in exon 13 (coding exon 11) of the ACSL4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1561, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 521 to be replaced by an asparagine (N). The alteration is not observed in healthy cohorts:_x000D_ Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the ACSL4/FACL4 c.1561G>A alteration was not observed among 6,780 individuals tested. Allele frequency data for this nucleotide position are not currently available from the 1000 Genomes Project and the alteration is not currently listed in the Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP). Though some variants may appear to be rare due to database-specific ethnic underrepresentation, rare missense alleles commonly exhibit a deleterious effect on protein function (Kryukov, 2007; Tennessen, 2012). IF USED, PULL THESE INTO REFERENCES:_x000D_ Kryukov GV, et al. (2007) Am J Hum Genet 80:727-739. Tennessen JA, et al. (2012) Science 337(64):64-69. This amino acid position is completely conserved on sequence alignment in available vertibrate species. The amino acid is located in a functionally important protein domain:_x000D_ The p.521D amino acid is located in the AMP-dependent synthetase/ligase domain of the protein. The alteration is predicted deleterious by in silico models:_x000D_ The p.D521N alteration is predicted to be probably damaging by Polyphen and deleterious by SIFT in silico analyses. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
