Genes affected
AGA (HGNC:318): (aspartylglucosaminidase) This gene encodes a member of the N-terminal nucleophile (Ntn) hydrolase family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate alpha and beta chains that comprise the mature enzyme. This enzyme is involved in the catabolism of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins. It cleaves asparagine from N-acetylglucosamines as one of the final steps in the lysosomal breakdown of glycoproteins. Mutations in this gene are associated with the lysosomal storage disease aspartylglycosaminuria that results in progressive neurodegeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes an isoform that is subject to proteolytic processing. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 11, 2018Variant summary: AGA c.800dupT (p.Pro268AlafsX52) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was observed with an allele freqyency of 2.8e-05 in 246258 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in AGA causing Aspartylglucosaminuria (2.8e-05 vs 0.0049), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.800dupT, has been reported in the literature in a homozygous individual affected with Aspartylglucosaminuria, who presented with less than 10% normal AGA activity (Ikonen_1991). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as "likely pathogenic." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 11, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro268Alafs*52) in the AGA gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 79 amino acid(s) of the AGA protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs386833436, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with aspartylglucosaminuria (PMID: 1722323). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects AGA function (PMID: 1722323, 11309371). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 11, 2021The c.800dupT (p.P268Afs*52) alteration, located in exon 7 (coding exon 7) of the AGA gene, consists of a duplication of T at position 800, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 52 amino acids. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of the AGA gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 79 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature. Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) database, the AGA c.800dupT alteration was observed in 0.003% (7/251484) of total alleles studied, with a frequency of 0.02% (6/34592) in the Latino subpopulation. This alteration has been detected in a homozygous state in an individual with aspartylglucosaminidase, which was diagnosed via clinical features, detection of urinary glycoasparagines, and decreased AGA activity (Ikonen, 1991). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
