Genes affected
ASS1 (HGNC:758): (argininosuccinate synthase 1) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the penultimate step of the arginine biosynthetic pathway. There are approximately 10 to 14 copies of this gene including the pseudogenes scattered across the human genome, among which the one located on chromosome 9 appears to be the only functional gene for argininosuccinate synthetase. Mutations in the chromosome 9 copy of this gene cause citrullinemia. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

The clinical test in combination with phenotye allows for use of PP4 - strong (based on Biesecker et al. 2024 ClinGen guidance for use of the PP1/BS4 co-segregation and PP4 phenotype specificity criteria, PMID: 38103548) -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 02, 2020Variant summary: ASS1 c.787G>A (p.Val263Met) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 251362 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in ASS1 causing Citrullinemia Type I (4.8e-05 vs 0.0041), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.787G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals in compound heterozygous or homozygous state affected with mild citrullinemia (Haberie_2003, Dimmock_2008, Barends_2014, Diez-Fernandez_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one in vitro functional study reports this variant had an impact on protein function and results in 36% of normal activity. Six Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic (4x) and likely pathogenic (2x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 21, 2023The p.Val263Met (NM_000050.4 c.787G>A) variant in ASS1 has been reported in at least 6 compound heterozygous and 6 homozygous individuals with mild citrullinemia and segregated in 2 siblings from two families (Haeberle 2003 PMID: 14680976, Diez-Fernandez 2017 PMID: 28111830). Some of these individuals were asymptomatic despite having mild hypercitrullinaemia (Haeberle 2003 PMID: 14680976, Diez-Fernandez 2017 PMID: 28111830). It has been identified in 0.01% (1/10148) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs192838388), and ] has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#92372) as pathogenic by several clinical laboratories. This variant led to reduced enzyme activity (36% as compared to wild-type) in in vitro studies (Berning 2008 PMID: 18473344). In addition, computational prediction tools suggest that the variant may impact the protein. In summary, the p.Val263Met variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for citrullinemia in an autosomal recessive manner, though it is associated with a milder phenotype.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteAug 28, 2019A heterozygous missense variant, NM_000050.4(ASS1):c.787G>A, has been identified in exon 12 of 16 of the ASS1 gene. The variant is predicted to result in a minor amino acid change from valine to methionine at position 263 of the protein (NP_000041.2(ASS1):p.(Val263Met)). The valine residue at this position has high conservation (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located within the Arginosuccinate synthase domain. In silico predictions for this variant are consistently pathogenic (Polyphen, SIFT, CADD, Mutation Taster). The variant is present in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.005% (15 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). The variant has been previously described as pathogenic and segregated with disease in multiple families with citrullinemia (ClinVar, Häberle, J. et al. (2003), Berning, C. et al. (2008), Glamuzina, E. et al. (2011), Diez-Fernandez, C. et al. (2017)). Additionally, in vitro studies demonstrated a reduced enzyme activity in p.V263M (Berning, C. et al. (2008)). Based on the information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as PATHOGENIC. -

Citrullinemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 27, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 263 of the ASS1 protein (p.Val263Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs192838388, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Citrullinemia type I (PMID: 4680976, 18473344, 18925679, 23780642). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92372). 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 ASS1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ASS1 function (PMID: 18473344). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
