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 Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.946
• PP5: Variant 22-50626187-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-50626187-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 68167.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=2, Pathogenic=1, not_provided=2}. Variant chr22-50626187-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr22-50626187-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68167). 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 ARSA protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is also known as A314T. This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 316 of the ARSA protein (p.Ala316Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 9090526). -

Variant summary: ARSA c.946G>A (p.Ala316Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 239136 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.946G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (Draghia_1997). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9090526). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68167). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
