Description

The c.595C>T (p.R199C) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the AARS2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 595, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 199 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.01% (26/282578) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.02% (23/128984) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This alteration has been detected in the homozygous state, and in trans with an AARS2 pathogenic mutation, in multiple individuals with mitochondrial alanyl-tRNA synthetase deficiency (Szpisjak, 2017; Carle, 2018; Lynch, 2016; Taglia, 2018; Srivastava, 2019; Xie, 2020; Cohen, 2022; Dallabona, 2014). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic.
