Genes affected

ASL (HGNC:746): (argininosuccinate lyase) This gene encodes a member of the lyase 1 family. The encoded protein forms a cytosolic homotetramer and primarily catalyzes the reversible hydrolytic cleavage of argininosuccinate into arginine and fumarate, an essential step in the liver in detoxifying ammonia via the urea cycle. Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive disorder argininosuccinic aciduria, or argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. A nontranscribed pseudogene is also located on the long arm of chromosome 22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val349Cysfs*72) in the ASL gene. RNA analysis indicates that this premature translational stop signal induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs762010471, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (PMID: 1705937, 16941645, 24166829). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203629). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects ASL function (PMID: 31943503). Studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal results in skipping of exon 14 (also known as exon 13), but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 16941645). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: ASL c.1045_1057del13 (p.Val349CysfsX72) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 250612 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1045_1057del13 has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Argininosuccinic Aciduria (Barbosa_1991, Walker_1997, Beck_2011, Balmer_2014, Zielonka_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports this deletion apparently causes exon skipping (Barbosa_1991). Four submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic (n=3) and likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
