Genes affected
CARS2 (HGNC:25695): (cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) This gene encodes a putative 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 cysteine to tRNA molecules. A splice-site mutation in this gene has been associated with a novel progressive myoclonic epilepsy disease with similar symptoms to MERRF syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2017]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 07, 2022This variant, c.649_651del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the CARS2 protein (p.Glu217del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs753472937, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of a CARS2-related condition (PMID: 25787132). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
