Genes affected
AFG2A (HGNC:18119): (AFG2 AAA ATPase homolog A) This gene encodes a member of the ATPase associated with diverse activities family, whose members are defined by a highly conserved ATPase domain. Members of this family participate in diverse cellular processes that include membrane fusion, DNA replication, microtubule severing, and protein degradation. The protein encoded by this gene has a putative mitochondrial targeting sequence and has been proposed to function in maintenance of mitochondrial function and integrity during mouse spermatogenesis. Allelic variants in this gene have been associated with epilepsy, hearing loss, and cognitive disability syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.D628G variant in the SPATA5 gene has not been reported previously as a disease-causing mutation nor as a benign polymorphism, to our knowledge. This variant concerns an evolutionary strongly conserved amino acid. Predictions suggest a pathogenic effect. It was found in the compound heterozygous state together with the p.Y559* mutation. The p.D628G variant was observed at an allele frequency of 0.00006 in approximately 33.000 individuals of European ancestry (ExAC database), indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret p.D628G as a likely pathogenic variant. -

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 628 of the SPATA5 protein (p.Asp628Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs768528444, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with SPATA5-related conditions (PMID: 26299366; internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203524). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SPATA5 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: AFG2A c.1883A>G (p.Asp628Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251348 control chromosomes. c.1883A>G has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in individuals affected with and/or with some clinical features of Epilepsy, Hearing Loss, And Mental Retardation Syndrome who underwent whole exome sequencing, including cases where it has been confirmed to be in trans with a pathogenic variant and has segregated with disease in at least one family (e.g. Tanaka_2015, Moreno-De-Luca_2021, Koh_2023). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37471090, 33528536, 26299366). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203524). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
