Genes affected
RARS1 (HGNC:9870): (arginyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. Arginyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 512 of the RARS protein (p.Arg512Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs369398935, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypomyelinating leukodystrophy (PMID: 24777941, 31814314). In at least one individual the data is consistent with the variant being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 162084). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. This variant disrupts the p.Arg512 amino acid residue in RARS. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with RARS-related conditions (PMID: 31814314), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. -
