Genes affected
GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 28, 2023Variant summary: GALNS c.692C>T (p.Ala231Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the sulfatase, N-terminal domain (IPR000917) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251332 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.692C>T in individuals affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVA (Morquio Syndrome A) and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35094026). One submitter has cited a clinical-significance assessment for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-IV-A Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpFeb 18, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 231 of the GALNS protein (p.Ala231Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs34745339, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GALNS-related conditions. 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 GALNS protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
