Genes affected
FARS2 (HGNC:21062): (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a protein that transfers phenylalanine to its cognate tRNA. This protein localizes to the mitochondrion and plays a role in mitochondrial protein translation. Mutations in this gene can cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 14 (Alpers encephalopathy). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWong Mito Lab, Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of MedicineJun 13, 2018- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 23, 2024This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 136 of the FARS2 protein (p.Pro136His). This variant is present in population databases (rs199863563, gnomAD 0.6%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with spastic paraplegia (PMID: 30250868; external communication). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 473309). 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 FARS2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FARS2 function (PMID: 30250868). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
