Genes affected

ARSA (HGNC:713): (arylsulfatase A) The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1

Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.08169935 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3, offset of -15, new splice context is: cagGTcata. Cryptic site results in inframe 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;

PP5

Variant 22-50626153-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-50626153-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 188949.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the ARSA 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 ARSA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8962139, 10477432). 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. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 14517960, 34276053, 34554397). This variant is also known as c.973+1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188949). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
