Genes affected

GARS1 (HGNC:4162): (glycyl-tRNA synthetase 1) This gene encodes glycyl-tRNA synthetase, one of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded enzyme is an (alpha)2 dimer which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -13 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.52).
• BP6: Variant 7-30612092-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr7-30612092-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 360009.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=4}.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000527 (77/1459868) while in subpopulation NFE AF= 0.0000658 (73/1110194). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000534. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 32 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome at 9 AD gene.

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1 Benign:1

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Apr 19, 2022	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
