Genes affected
EARS2 (HGNC:29419): (glutamyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) 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. This protein is encoded by the nuclear genome but is likely to be imported to the mitochondrion where it is thought to catalyze the ligation of glutamate to tRNA molecules. Mutations in this gene have been associated with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 12 (COXPD12). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt EARS2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 318550). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency (PMID: 22492562, 28973083, 33855712). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs746838793, gnomAD 0.06%). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 317 of the EARS2 protein (p.Gly317Cys). -
