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.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
BP6
Variant 17-3498977-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-3498977-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 198037.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-2.2 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00382 (581/152264) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.0325 (497/15302). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0301. There are 16 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 345 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
