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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago | Sep 08, 2020 | DNA sequence analysis of the SACS gene demonstrated a one base pair duplication in exon 10, c.8793dup. This sequence change results in an amino acid frameshift and creates a premature stop codon 7 amino acids downstream of the variant, p.Arg2932Thrfs*7. This sequence change is not predicted to result in nonsense mediated decay, but does disrupt the c-terminal domain of the SACS protein. This sequencing change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low overall population frequency of 0.001% and a frequency of 0.004% in the African sub group (dbSNP rs767871841). Other truncating variants within this region and downstream of this variant have been reported in patients with SACS-related disorders (PMIDs: 18465152, 15156359, 22816526). Collectively these evidences indicate that, this p.Arg2932Thrfs*7 sequence change is pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Athena Diagnostics | Jun 10, 2020 | The variant results in a shift of the reading frame, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene, and found in general population data at a frequency that is consistent with pathogenicity. - |
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Apr 29, 2024 | Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 1648 amino acids are replaced with 6 different amino acids, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream in HGMD; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 11788093, 34663476, 10655055, 19892370, 22307627, 21745802) - |

Spastic paraplegia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Oct 20, 2023 | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2932Thrfs*7) in the SACS gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 1648 amino acid(s) of the SACS protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs767871841, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SACS-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 959991). This variant disrupts a region of the SACS protein in which other variant(s) (p.Ile2949Phefs*4, p.Arg3903*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10655055, 11788093, 19892370, 21745802, 22307627). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
