Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionFeb 23, 2023The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.150%). The variant is observed as homozygous in at least two unrelated individuals/adults in the gnomAD v.2.1.1 dataset. The variant is located in a mutational hot spot and/or well-established functional domain in which established pathogenic variants have been reported. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (3Cnet: 0.84). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with SOD1 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000014766 / PMID: 7647793). Different missense changes at the same codon (p.Asp91Asn, p.Asp91Val) have been reported to be associated with SOD1 related disorder (PMID: 22632444). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 27, 2022This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 91 of the SOD1 protein (p.Asp91Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs80265967, gnomAD 1.2%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PMID: 7647793, 10809943, 11220750, 11284995, 11369193, 14506936, 18608106, 19703565, 20460594, 22264771, 23062701, 23280792). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PMID: 8909456, 10809943, 14506936, 19922148, 22264771); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. This variant is also known as p.Asp90Ala. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14766). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SOD1 function (PMID: 7655469, 12482932, 16945901, 17420412, 18319614, 19635794, 19703565, 20189984, 22264771, 25509359, 25792239). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 29, 2016The D91A variant in the SOD1 gene has been reported multiple times, using alternate nomenclature (D90A), in association with familial ALS. When found in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state D91A has been reported as a disease-associated variant (Hand et al., 2001; Andersen et al., 1995; Felbecker et al., 2010). However, in the heterozygous state the pathogenicity of the the D91A variant is debated (Al-Chalabi et al., 1998; Felbecker et al., 2010). The D91A variant is found with significant frequency among Scandinavian populations (Al-Chalabi et al., 1998); and the NHLBI ESP Exome Sequencing Project reports D91A was observed at a frequency of 0.08%, 7/8600 alleles, from individuals of European ancestry, indicating it may be a rare variant in this population. The D91A 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 not conserved across species. Functional studies suggest that the D91A variant may not alter protein activity and stability to the same degree as other established SOD1 variants associated with familial ALS (Själander et al., 1995; Fujisawa et al., 2012; Lindberg et al., 2002). Given the available information, we interpret D91A as a variant of unknown significance. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena Diagnostics IncJun 22, 2020This is a founder variant with reported recessive and dominant disease inheritance (PMID 12442272), and so its frequency in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). This variant is also referred to as p.Asp90Ala in published literature. This variant associates with disease in multiple families reported to exhibit both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance. This variant is statistically more frequent in affected individuals than in the general population and/or healthy controls. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. Experiments show this variant causes increased protein aggregation causing motor neuron degeneration (PMID 17146286, 18319614, 19483195, 25806427). -
