Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 5P and 1B. PM1PM2PP5BP4

The NM_000487.6(ARSA):c.1156C>T(p.Arg386Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000161 in 1,613,664 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R386H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsMay 05, 2020This variant was determined to be likely pathogenic according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInstitute of Human Genetics, University of Leipzig Medical CenterSep 20, 2021This variant was identified as compound heterozygous with NM_000487.6:c.449C>T. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 25, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 386 of the ARSA protein (p.Arg386Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs199476370, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 9090526, 28762252; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as Arg384Cys. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68115). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ARSA protein function. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 06, 2023Variant summary: ARSA c.1156C>T (p.Arg386Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Two of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251092 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1156C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (examples: Draghia_1997 and Bohringer_2017). 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 publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28762252, 9090526). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
