Genes affected

SPAST (HGNC:11233): (spastin) This gene encodes a member of the AAA (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) protein family. Members of this protein family share an ATPase domain and have roles in diverse cellular processes including membrane trafficking, intracellular motility, organelle biogenesis, protein folding, and proteolysis. The use of alternative translational initiation sites in this gene results in a single transcript variant that can produce isoforms that differ in the length of their N-terminus and which thereby differ in the efficiency of their export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In addition, alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode isoforms that differ in other protein regions as well. One isoform of this gene has been shown to be a microtubule-severing enzyme that regulates microtubule abundance, mobility, and plus-end distribution. Mutations in this gene cause the most frequent form of autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia 4. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the SPAST mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 87. Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of SPAST-related conditions (PMID: 30476002). 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. This variant disrupts a region of the SPAST protein in which other variant(s) (p.Glu43Gln) have been observed in individuals with SPAST-related conditions (PMID: 16055926). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1917540). -
