The variant received -2 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). BP4_Moderate

The NM_004990.4(MARS1):c.661G>A (p.Glu221Lys) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.000416 (AC=671) in the gnomAD database across 1,612,464 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.000514. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (no review stars).

Genes affected

MARS1 (HGNC:6898): (methionyl-tRNA synthetase 1) This gene encodes a member of the class I family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These enzymes play a critical role in protein biosynthesis by charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded protein is a component of the multi-tRNA synthetase complex and catalyzes the ligation of methionine to tRNA molecules. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
