Genes affected

AARS1 (HGNC:20): (alanyl-tRNA synthetase 1) The human alanyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) belongs to a family of tRNA synthases, of the class II enzymes. Class II tRNA synthases evolved early in evolution and are highly conserved. This is reflected by the fact that 498 of the 968-residue polypeptide human AARS shares 41% identity witht the E.coli protein. tRNA synthases are the enzymes that interpret the RNA code and attach specific aminoacids to the tRNAs that contain the cognate trinucleotide anticodons. They consist of a catalytic domain which interacts with the amino acid acceptor-T psi C helix of the tRNA, and a second domain which interacts with the rest of the tRNA structure.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Jan 09, 2020	The AARS c.1846C>T; p.Arg616Cys variant (rs372221218), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 320335). This variant is found in the general population with a low overall allele frequency of 0.004% (11/282876 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 616 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. However, given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Arg616Cys variant is uncertain at this time. -

The c.1846C>T (p.R616C) alteration is located in exon 14 (coding exon 13) of the AARS gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1846, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 616 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 616 of the AARS protein (p.Arg616Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs372221218, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with AARS-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 320335). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on AARS 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. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
