Genes affected
SPTLC1 (HGNC:11277): (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 1) This gene encodes a member of the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. The encoded protein is the long chain base subunit 1 of serine palmitoyltransferase. Serine palmitoyltransferase converts L-serine and palmitoyl-CoA to 3-oxosphinganine with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and is the key enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene were identified in patients with hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 1, 6, 10, and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: SPTLC1 c.1160G>A (p.Gly387Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aminotransferase, class I/classII, large domain (IPR004839) of 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 1.2e-05 in 251488 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1160G>A in individuals affected with Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 1A and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 857854). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1160G>A (p.G387E) alteration is located in exon 13 (coding exon 13) of the SPTLC1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1160, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 387 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1 Uncertain:1
May 01, 2022
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 387 of the SPTLC1 protein (p.Gly387Glu). 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. 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 expected to disrupt SPTLC1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 857854). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SPTLC1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs119482084, gnomAD 0.003%). -
