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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

• BP4: This position, referring to a specific DNA site, is a probable branch point but is likely benign (scored 1 / 10, using the threshold of <=3). The score ranges from 0 to 10, with values ≤3 considered benign and >5 classified as pathogenic. Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.91).
• BP6: Variant 16-88835869-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-88835869-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 93182.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (SAS) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.152 is higher than 0.05.
