Genes affected
MARS1 (HGNC:6898): (methionyl-tRNA synthetase 1) This gene encodes a member of the class I family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These enzymes play a critical role in protein biosynthesis by charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded protein is a component of the multi-tRNA synthetase complex and catalyzes the ligation of methionine to tRNA molecules. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.3e-05 in 1614092 control chromosomes. c.1852C>T has been reported in the literature in trans along with a VUS missense in one infant with interstitial lung and liver disease (Rips_2018) and at a heterozygous state in several individuals affected with CMT2 or CMT, however the carrier parents were reported to be unaffected (Gonzalez_2013, Volodarsky_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with MARS1-Related Disorders. Two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function in Yeast, however, none of these studies allows convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Gonzalez_2013, Rips_2018) . The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23729695, 29655802, 32376792). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 156025). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2U;C4225400:Severe early-onset pulmonary alveolar proteinosis due to MARS deficiency Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 08, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 618 of the MARS protein (p.Arg618Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs587777718, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant MARS-related conditions and/or autosomal recessive MARS-related conditions (PMID: 23729695, 29655802). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 156025). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MARS function (PMID: 23729695, 29655802). 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 03, 2017The R618C variant in the MARS gene has been reported previously in the heterozygous state in a male individual and his maternal uncle, both of whom had late-adult onset of peripheral axonal neuropathy classified as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2U (CMT2U); however, this variant was also observed in the individual's unaffected mother (Gonzalez et al., 2013). This variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The R618C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties, and occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function, and functional studies demonstrated that the R618C variant did not rescue growth of yeast deficient in an ortholog of MARS (Gonzales et al., 2013). However, additional studies are needed to validate the functional effect of this variant in vivo. We interpret R618C as a variant of uncertain significance. -
