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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsJun 03, 2024The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) This variant has been identified in at least one individual with Perry syndrome. This variant is expected to impact normal RNA splicing. Though the reading frame of the transcript is expected to be maintained, an important region of the protein is disrupted, therefore, this variant is expected to severely disrupt function. A variant expected to cause the same impact in normal RNA splicing has been confirmed to occur de novo in multiple individuals with Perry syndrome. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 10, 2019Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in an in-frame deletion of a critical region (CAP-Gly domain and GKNDG motif); A different nucleotide change at this same splice donor site (c.279+2T>C) has been reported in an individual with muscle wasting, weakness, and fasciculations (Zhu et al., 2015); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Has not been previously reported as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Neuronopathy, distal hereditary motor, type 7B;C1862939:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 1;C1868594:Perry syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 30, 2023This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the DCTN1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), however the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in DCTN1 cause disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 565763). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of hereditary motor neuropathy (PMID: 25590979; Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). -
