Green List (high evidence)

ARSA variants are associated with Metachromatic leukodystrophy (OMIM:250100) and as definitive Gen2Phen gene for ARSA-related arylsulfatase A deficiency. Numerous ARSA variants have been reported in numerous unrelated cases of OMIM:250100 (PMID: 1670590; 9600244; 1673291; 1684088).
