Genes affected

AFG3L2 (HGNC:315): (AFG3 like matrix AAA peptidase subunit 2) This gene encodes a protein localized in mitochondria and closely related to paraplegin. The paraplegin gene is responsible for an autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. This gene is a candidate gene for other hereditary spastic paraplegias or neurodegenerative disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

TUBB6 (HGNC:20776): (tubulin beta 6 class V) Predicted to enable GTP binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cell cycle. Located in microtubule. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -20 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.76).
• BP6: Variant 18-12329456-T-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr18-12329456-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 326100.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00842 (1283/152356) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.0293 (1219/41584). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0279. There are 21 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 607 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAd at 20 AD,AR gene

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
