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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 7 of the ASS1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ASS1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18473344, 19006241). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with citrullinemia (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92368). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
