Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000512.5(GALNS):c.860C>T(p.Ser287Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000871 in 1,606,430 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S287S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-IV-A Pathogenic:9
- -
In vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene product (low to null enzymatic activity in homozygotes; PS3_strong); the prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared with the prevalence in controls (PS4_strong); very low frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_moderate); multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene (PP3_supporting) -
This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 287 of the GALNS protein (p.Ser287Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs770053354, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mucopolysaccharidosis IV type A (PMID: 9298823, 15235041, 16287098, 23876334, 25252036, 29731656). 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: 265169). 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 GALNS protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
This variant was classified as: Pathogenic. The following ACMG criteria were applied in classifying this variant: PS1,PM2,PM3,PP2,PP3. -

The missense c.860C>T (p.Ser287Leu) variant in the GALNS gene has been observed in individual(s) with mucopolysaccharidosis IV type A (Tomatsu, Shunji et al., 2005). Mapping of the p.Ser287Leu variant to the X-ray crystallography structure of the GALNS protein found that this variant is buried within the protein and likely results in loss of proper hydrogen bonding (Rivera-Colon et al., 2012). This variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.001%) in the gnomAD Exomes and novel in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic (multiple submissions). The amino acid Serine at position 287 is changed to a Leucine changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The variant is predicted as damaging by SIFT. The amino acid change p.Ser287Leu in GALNS is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:3
The S287L missense variant has been reported previously in association with MPS IVA in a patient with a severe MPS IVA phenotype who was homozygous for the S287L variant (Bunge et al., 1997). Mapping of the S287L variant to the X-ray crystallography structure of the GALNS protein found that this variant is buried within the protein and likely results in loss of proper hydrogen bonding (Rivera-Colon et al., 2012). Furthermore, S287L is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which occurs at a position that is highly conserved across species, and missense variants in nearby residues (F284V, N289D, N289S, G290R, G290S) have also been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with MPS IVA (Stenson et al., 2014), further supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, we interpret S287L to be a pathogenic variant. -

Morquio syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.Ser287Leu variant in GALNS has been reported in at least 2 homozygous and 2 compound heterozygous individuals with severe mucopolysaccharidosis IVa (Bunge 1997 PMID: 9298823, Tuysuz 2019 PMID: 30980944, Zanetti 2020 PMID: 32036093). It has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 265169) and identified in 1/41450 African chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. Mapping of the variant to the X-ray crystallography structure of the GALNS protein found that this variant is buried within the protein and likely results in loss of proper hydrogen bonding (Rivera-Colon 2012 PMID: 22940367). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as Likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive mucopolysaccharidosis IVa. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_Strong, PM2_Supporting, PP3, PS3_Supporting, PP4. -
