Genes affected

QARS1 (HGNC:9751): (glutaminyl-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. In metazoans, 9 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases specific for glutamine (gln), glutamic acid (glu), and 7 other amino acids are associated within a multienzyme complex. Although present in eukaryotes, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (QARS) is absent from many prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, in which Gln-tRNA(Gln) is formed by transamidation of the misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln). Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 45 of the QARS protein (p.Gly45Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs587777331, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive microcephaly, seizures and cerebral-cerebellar atrophy (PMID: 24656866). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127115). Invitae Evidence 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 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 QARS protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects QARS function (PMID: 24656866, 26869582). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The QARS1 c.134G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly45Val. This variant was reported in the compound heterozygous state with a second QARS1 variant in two siblings who presented with progressive microcephaly, intractable seizures in infancy, and brain abnormalities (Zhang et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24656866). In functional studies, the p.Gly45Val substitution decreased activity of the glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase, which is encoded by the QARS1 gene (Zhang et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24656866; Ognjenović et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26869582). This variant is reported in 0.0058% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Based on the collective evidence, this variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
