Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:1
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.
