Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_003119.4(SPG7):c.4G>A(p.Ala2Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000795 in 1,490,226 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:3Benign:1
This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16534102, 20301286) -
SPG7: PM2, PM3 -
- -
Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational tools predict that this variant is not damaging. The variant is located in a region that is considered important for protein function and/or structure. -
Hereditary spastic paraplegia 7 Uncertain:1Benign:1
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Hereditary spastic paraplegia Uncertain:1

not specified Benign:1
Variant summary: SPG7 c.4G>A (p.Ala2Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00079 in 1490226 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0031 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SPG7 causing Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7 phenotype. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4G>A in individuals affected with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215198). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Inborn genetic diseases Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
