Genes affected
GALNS (HGNC:4122): (galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfatase) This gene encodes N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase which is a lysosomal exohydrolase required for the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Sequence alterations including point, missense and nonsense mutations, as well as those that affect splicing, result in a deficiency of this enzyme. Deficiencies of this enzyme lead to Morquio A syndrome, a lysosomal storage disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The observed missense c.1502G>C(p.Cys501Ser) variant in GALNS gene has been reported previously in homozygous or compound heterozygous state in individual(s) affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis IV A (Bidchol et al., 2014). This variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Uncertain Significance / Likely Pathogenic. The amino acid Cys at position 501 is changed to a Ser changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The amino acid change p.Cys501Ser in GALNS is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. Multiple lines of computational evidence (Polyphen - Damaging, SIFT - Damaging, and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. This mutation is present in protein structure disrupting hotspot region (Bidchol et al., 2014). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The variant has shown a homozygous status for c.1502G>C (p.Cys501Ser) in exon 14 of the GALNS gene. This variant is not reported in 1000 genomes and gnomAD databases. The in-silico prediction of the variant is disease causing by LRT, Mutation Taster, SIFT and PROVEAN. -
