Genes affected
USP8 (HGNC:12631): (ubiquitin specific peptidase 8) This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the ubiquitin-specific processing protease family of proteins. The encoded protein is thought to regulate the morphology of the endosome by ubiquitination of proteins on this organelle and is involved in cargo sorting and membrane trafficking at the early endosome stage. This protein is required for the cell to enter the S phase of the cell cycle and also functions as a positive regulator in the Hedgehog signaling pathway in development. Pseudogenes of this gene are present on chromosomes 2 and 6. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Submissions by phenotype

Hereditary spastic paraplegia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 18, 2019This variant is present in population databases (rs761711198, ExAC 0.002%). This sequence change falls in intron 4 of the USP8 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the USP8 protein. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with USP8-related disease. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. -
