Invitae RCV000020321 SCV002211356 pathogenic Metachromatic leukodystrophy 2023-01-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ARSA function (PMID: 8101083). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ARSA protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3074). This variant is also known as p.Gly245Arg. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 8101083, 26553228, 31186049). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs74315471, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 247 of the ARSA protein (p.Gly247Arg).
Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute RCV000020321 SCV002557411 pathogenic Metachromatic leukodystrophy 2022-06-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MIM#250100). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from glycine to arginine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (v2: 3 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0704 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has limited previous evidence for pathogenicity. p.(Gly247Glu) has been reported in a compound heterozygote individual with metachromatic leukodystrophy (PMID: 27779215). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. It has been reported in at least six homozygote or compound heterozygote individuals with metachromatic leukodystrophy; and consistently classified as pathogenic by diagnostic laboratories in ClinVar (PMIDs: 31186049, 21167507). This variant is also known as p.(Gly245Arg) in older manuscripts. (SP) 1205 - This variant has been shown to be maternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign

Neuberg Supratech Reference Laboratories Pvt Ltd, Neuberg Centre for Genomic Medicine RCV000020321 SCV004101546 pathogenic Metachromatic leukodystrophy criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The missense c.739G>A (p.Gly247Arg) variant has been observed in individual(s) with metachromatic leukodystrophy (Liaw HR et al). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ARSA function (Hasegawa Y et al). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ARSA protein function. This variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.0012%) in the gnomad and novel in 1000 genome database. It has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic. The amino acid Gly at position 247 is changed to a Arg changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Foundation for Research in Genetics and Endocrinology, FRIGE's Institute of Human Genetics RCV000020321 SCV004801942 pathogenic Metachromatic leukodystrophy 2024-03-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing A heterozygous missense variant in exon 4 of the ARSA gene that results in the amino acid substitution of Arginine for Glycine at codon 247 was detected. The observed variant c.739G>A has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and has a MAF of 0.0012% in the gnomAD database. The in silico prediction of the variant is damaging by MutationTaster2, SIFT, PolyPhen2. The reference codon is conserved across species. In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
