Genes affected
SACS (HGNC:10519): (sacsin molecular chaperone) This gene encodes the sacsin protein, which includes a UbL domain at the N-terminus, a DnaJ domain, and a HEPN domain at the C-terminus. The gene is highly expressed in the central nervous system, also found in skin, skeletal muscles and at low levels in the pancreas. This gene includes a very large exon spanning more than 12.8 kb. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by early-onset cerebellar ataxia with spasticity and peripheral neuropathy. The authors of a publication on the effects of siRNA-mediated sacsin knockdown concluded that sacsin protects against mutant ataxin-1 and suggest that "the large multi-domain sacsin protein is able to recruit Hsp70 chaperone action and has the potential to regulate the effects of other ataxia proteins" (Parfitt et al., PubMed: 19208651). A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Variant summary: The SACS c.8853T>C (p.Val2951Val) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a polymorphism outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may affect ESE site of SRp55. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 74944/252514 control chromosomes (127 homozygotes) at a frequency of 0.2967915, which is approximately 38 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic SACS variant (0.0079057), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. This variant has been reported in a validation study with high allele frequency and was classified as polymorphism by authors (Vermeer_2009). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign/likely benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -
