Genes affected
PSAP (HGNC:9498): (prosaposin) This gene encodes a highly conserved preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate four main cleavage products including saposins A, B, C, and D. Each domain of the precursor protein is approximately 80 amino acid residues long with nearly identical placement of cysteine residues and glycosylation sites. Saposins A-D localize primarily to the lysosomal compartment where they facilitate the catabolism of glycosphingolipids with short oligosaccharide groups. The precursor protein exists both as a secretory protein and as an integral membrane protein and has neurotrophic activities. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Gaucher disease and metachromatic leukodystrophy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes an isoform that is proteolytically processed. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The L137V variant in the PSAP gene has been reported previously as a heterozygous variant in an individual with an atypical preoxisomal disorder; however no second PSAP variant was identified and this individual carried a homozygous PEX16 pathogenic variant (Bacino et al., 2016). The L137V variant was observed on 115/11540 (0.99%) alleles from individuals of Latino background in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) data set, indicating it may be a rare variant in this population. The L137V variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. This substitution occurs at a position where amino acids with similar properties to Leucine are tolerated across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret L137V as a variant of uncertain significance.
