Description

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 420 of the VARS2 protein (p.Ala420Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs202201763, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of VARS2-related conditions (PMID: 29314548, 33937156; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522814). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
