Genes affected
ASPA (HGNC:756): (aspartoacylase) This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of N-acetyl_L-aspartic acid (NAA) to aspartate and acetate. NAA is abundant in the brain where hydrolysis by aspartoacylase is thought to help maintain white matter. This protein is an NAA scavenger in other tissues. Mutations in this gene cause Canavan disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
SPATA22 (HGNC:30705): (spermatogenesis associated 22) Predicted to be involved in regulation of meiotic cell cycle. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including fertilization; gamete generation; and meiosis I cell cycle process. Predicted to be located in chromosome.

Spongy degeneration of central nervous system Pathogenic:3
May 15, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Ile16 amino acid residue in ASPA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8659549, 12638939). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370934). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with Canavan disease (PMID: 20129749). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the ASPA mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 82. -
