The SPTA1 c.779T>C; p.Leu260Pro variant (rs121918634, ClinVar Variation ID: 12844), also known as p.Leu254Pro, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with hereditary elliptocytosis (Glele-Kakai 1996, Krishnevskaya 2020, Mansour-Hendili 2020, Sahr 1989, Shome 2023). This variant is only observed on four alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Functional analyses of the variant protein demonstrate reduced tetramer assembly and red cell membrane stability (Harper 2013, Randles 2013). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.839). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Glele-Kakai C et al.

Observed in multiple individuals in published literature with hereditary elliptocytosis, either in the heterozygous or homozygous state and often found in combination with the alpha-Lely allele (PMID: 8857939, 2794061, 31539204, 37400730); Published functional studies demonstrate that L260P increased the stability of the closed dimer state, reduced tetramer assembly, and resulted in membrane destabilization (PMID: 23241237, 23974198); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 3597773, 23974198, 2794061, 31130284, 8857939, 31539204, 37400730, 35150601, 38103590, 18815189, 32641076, 23241237) -

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 260 of the SPTA1 protein (p.Leu260Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918634, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant hereditary elliptocytosis and autosomal recessive hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (PMID: 2794061, 8857939, 18815189, 31130284, 31539204, 32641076). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12844). 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 SPTA1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SPTA1 function (PMID: 23974198). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
