Added comment: Please consider inclusion with amber/green rating in the current panel.

Biallelic pathogenic LARS1 variants cause Infantile liver failure syndrome 1, MIM# 615438.

Lenz et al (2020 - PMID: 32699352) review the phenotype of 25 affected individuals from 15 families.

Seizures occurred in 19/24 and were commonly associated with infections. Encephalopathic episodes (in 13 patients) accompanied by seizures up to status epilepticus occurred independently of hepatic decompensation.

In addition 22/24 presented with neurodevelopmental delay. The authors comment that cognitive impairment was present in 13/17 individuals (mild-severe) whereas most presented with learning disabilities.

These patients will most likely investigated for their liver disease (although presentation was highly variable and/or very mild in few).

The gene encodes a cytoplasmic amino-acyl tRNA synthetase (ARS) with neurologic manifestations observed in almost all patients (and seizures / DD and ID common to other disorders due to mutations in other genes encoding for ARSs).

Please note that the HGNC approved symbol for this gene is LARS1.
