Genes affected

HGSNAT (HGNC:26527): (heparan-alpha-glucosaminide N-acetyltransferase) This gene encodes a lysosomal acetyltransferase, which is one of several enzymes involved in the lysosomal degradation of heparin sulfate. Mutations in this gene are associated with Sanfilippo syndrome C, one type of the lysosomal storage disease mucopolysaccaridosis III, which results from impaired degradation of heparan sulfate.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.8, offset of -38, new splice context is: agcccttccttttcacatAGcaa. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 8-43172308-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr8-43172308-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1948100.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1948100). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with mucopolysaccharidosis type III (PMID: 19479962, 33879512). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 7 of the HGSNAT gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in HGSNAT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17033958, 19479962). -
