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]

The c.2936+5 G>A variant in the ASPM gene has been observed as a homozygous variant (reported as c.2936 +5 G>T in Table 1) in a consanguineous Pakistani family with congenital microcephaly (Bond et al., 2003). The c.2936+5 G>A variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). It alters a position that is conserved across species. In silico splice prediction models suggest that the c.2936+5 G>A variant may damage the natural splice donor site of intron 10. However, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the effect of this sequence change in this individual is unknown. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be completely excluded.
