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]

Citrullinemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 04, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg127 amino acid residue in ASS1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19006241, 23246278, 27287393). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 623334). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with citrulinemia (PMID: 14680976, 23099195, 28111830, 31208364). This variant is present in population databases (rs201623252, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 127 of the ASS1 protein (p.Arg127Gln). -
