Genes affected
ASS1 (HGNC:758): (argininosuccinate synthase 1) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the penultimate step of the arginine biosynthetic pathway. There are approximately 10 to 14 copies of this gene including the pseudogenes scattered across the human genome, among which the one located on chromosome 9 appears to be the only functional gene for argininosuccinate synthetase. Mutations in the chromosome 9 copy of this gene cause citrullinemia. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesJan 02, 2020The ASS1 c.847G>A; p.Glu283Lys variant (rs765338121) is reported in the literature in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in several individuals affected with citrullinemia (Diez-Fernandez 2017, Gao 2003, Kleijer 2006). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 430139), and is only observed on six alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The glutamic acid at codon 283 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Diez-Fernandez C et al.

Citrullinemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 20, 2023This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 283 of the ASS1 protein (p.Glu283Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs765338121, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with citrullinemia type (PMID: 12815590, 16475226, 23611581, 28111830; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430139). 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 ASS1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 03, 2015The E283K 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. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in nearby residues (R279Q, G280R, T284I) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with citrullinemia (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. -
