Genes affected
DCTN1 (HGNC:2711): (dynactin subunit 1) This gene encodes the largest subunit of dynactin, a macromolecular complex consisting of 10 subunits ranging in size from 22 to 150 kD. Dynactin binds to both microtubules and cytoplasmic dynein. Dynactin is involved in a diverse array of cellular functions, including ER-to-Golgi transport, the centripetal movement of lysosomes and endosomes, spindle formation, chromosome movement, nuclear positioning, and axonogenesis. This subunit interacts with dynein intermediate chain by its domains directly binding to dynein and binds to microtubules via a highly conserved glycine-rich cytoskeleton-associated protein (CAP-Gly) domain in its N-terminus. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. Mutations in this gene cause distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VIIB (HMN7B) which is also known as distal spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (dSBMA). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Variant summary: DCTN1 c.1324A>G (p.Met442Val) results in a 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 1.2e-05 in 251490 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1324A>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with distal Hereditary Motor Neuronopathy (Antoniadi_2015). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with DCTN1-Related Disorders. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26392352). One ClinVar submitter has assessed this variant since 2014, and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

The DCTN1 c.1324A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met442Val. This variant has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in an individual with hereditary motor neuropathy (Table S3, Antoniadi et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26392352). This variant is reported in 0.0018% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 442 of the DCTN1 protein (p.Met442Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs763480310, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DCTN1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468257). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DCTN1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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.
