Genes affected
ASPM (HGNC:19048): (assembly factor for spindle microtubules) This gene is the human ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster 'abnormal spindle' gene (asp), which is essential for normal mitotic spindle function in embryonic neuroblasts. Studies in mouse also suggest a role of this gene in mitotic spindle regulation, with a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with microcephaly primary type 5. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys2595Serfs*6) in the ASPM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ASPM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19028728, 23611254). This variant is present in population databases (rs199422173, gnomAD 0.05%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (MCPH) (PMID: 19028728, 23611254, 29644084). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21606). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.7782_7783delGA (p.K2595Sfs*6) alteration, located in exon 18 (coding exon 18) of the ASPM gene, consists of a deletion of 2 nucleotides from position 7782 to 7783, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 6 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Reported in the homozygous state or in trans with a second pathogenic ASPM variant in multiple patients with autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (MCPH)(Nicholas, 2009; Passemard, 2009; Tan, 2014; Kraemer, 2016; Letard, 2017; Okamoto, 2018; Ahmed, 2019; Qi, 2020; Rasool, 2020; Duerinckx, 2021). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

The ASPM c.7782_7783delGA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys2595Serfs*6). This variant has been reported, both in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states with a second truncating variant, in several patients affected with primary autosomal recessive microcephaly (Rasool et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32677750; Nicholas et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19028728; Tan et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 23611254; Passemard et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26691732). This variant is reported in 0.046% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in ASPM are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
