This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000203.5:c.223G>A variant in IDUA is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of alanine by threonine at amino acid 75, p.(Ala75Thr). This variant has been seen in at least 11 unrelated patients. Six of these patients are compound heterozygous for the variant and another variant in IDUA that has been classified as pathogenic, phase not confirmed: c.208C>T (p.Gln70Ter) (PMID:28752568, 35141277) (ClinVar Variation ID: 11909; 3 patients; max 2 patients counted, 2 x 0.5), c.1205G>A (p.Trp402Ter) (ClinVar Variation ID: 11908) (PMID:28752568, 8019563) (3 patients; max 2 patients counted, 2 x 0.5), and 2 individuals are homozygous for the variant (PMID:11735025, 27146977). In addition, three individuals are compound heterozygous for the variant and either c.895C>T (PMID:27146977), c.1898C>T (p.Ser633Leu) (PMID:16438163) or c.1650+1G>T (PMID:29843745). The allelic data from these patients will be used in the classification of the second variant and is not included here to avoid circular logic. Total points = 3 points (PM3_Strong). One of these individuals has specific clinical features (dysostosis multiplex, hepatosplenomegaly, corneal clouding and coarse facial features), with undetectable IDUA enzyme activity compared to Thai controls, and elevated urinary dermatan and heparan sulfate excretion (PMID:16438163). This is sufficient for use of PP4_Moderate. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1.0. is 0.00001335 (1/74900 alleles) in the African/African American population, which is lower than the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP’s threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.00025). Expression of the variant in COS-1 cells resulted in no residual wild type IDUA activity (once background activity subtracted), indicating that this variant may impact protein function (PMID:7550232)(PS3_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.803 which is above the threshold of 0.773, evidence that correlates with impact to IDUA function at the moderate level based on the specifications of the ClinGen Lysosomal Diseases VCEP (PMID:36413997) (PP3_Moderate). There is a ClinVar entry for this variant (Variation ID: 222993). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic.

Genes affected
IDUA (HGNC:5391): (alpha-L-iduronidase) This gene encodes an enzyme that hydrolyzes the terminal alpha-L-iduronic acid residues of two glycosaminoglycans, dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. This hydrolysis is required for the lysosomal degradation of these glycosaminoglycans. Mutations in this gene that result in enzymatic deficiency lead to the autosomal recessive disease mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
SLC26A1 (HGNC:10993): (solute carrier family 26 member 1) This gene is a member of a family of sulfate/anion transporter genes. Family members are well conserved in their genomic (number and size of exons) and protein (aa length among species) structures, but have markedly different tissue expression patterns. This gene is primarily expressed in the liver, pancreas, and brain. Three splice variants that encode different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 75 of the IDUA protein (p.Ala75Thr). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mucopolysaccharidosis type I (PMID: 8680403, 11735025, 16438163, 27146977, 29843745). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 222993). 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 IDUA protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects IDUA function (PMID: 7550232). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Ala75Thr variant in IDUA has been reported in at least 9 individuals with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) (PMID: 29843745, 27146977, 28752568) and has been identified in 0.002% (3/121916) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs758452450). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (VariationID: 222993) as pathogenic by Counsyl and GeneReviews. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. The phenotype of individuals homozygous and compound heterozygous for this variant is highly specific for MPS based on null alpha-L-iduronidase activity, consistent with disease (PMID: 27146977). The presence of this variant in 3 affected homozygotes and in combination with reported pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in 5 individuals with MPS increases the likelihood that the p.Ala75Thr variant is pathogenic (VariationID: 11908, 11909; PMID: 29843745, 27146977, 28752568). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for MPS in an autosomal recessive manner based on the presence of the variant in combination with other pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in individuals with MPS and the phenotype of individuals with the variant being highly specific for MPS. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_very-strong, PM2, PP3, PP4 (Richards 2015). -

Variant summary: IDUA c.223G>A (p.Ala75Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Glycoside hydrolase domain (IPR000514) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.3e-06 in 241700 control chromosomes. c.223G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 1 (example, Clarke_1994, Ghosh_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (example, Tieu_1995). Four clinical diagnostic laboratories and the Gene Reviews database have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
