Genes affected

ATXN3 (HGNC:7106): (ataxin 3) Machado-Joseph disease, also known as spinocerebellar ataxia-3, is an autosomal dominant neurologic disorder. The protein encoded by this gene contains (CAG)n repeats in the coding region, and the expansion of these repeats from the normal 12-44 to 52-86 is one cause of Machado-Joseph disease. There is a negative correlation between the age of onset and CAG repeat numbers. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.

The ATXN3 p.Ala22_Gly23ins13 variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs763541221), ClinVar, Cosmic and LOVD 3.0. The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project, the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016), or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). This variant is an in-frame insertion resulting in the inclusion of 13 CAG repeats. The (CAG)n repeat within the ATXN3 gene was found to cause Machado-Joseph disease at 73-78 repeats while 14-40 repeats was considered the normal range (Limprasert_1996_PMID: 8824876). More recent studies have suggested 52 to 86 repeats as pathogenic (GeneReviews). This CAG repeat expansion would fall within the normal range and this variant is predicted to be a polymorphism by MutationTaster. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
