Genes affected
AFG3L2 (HGNC:315): (AFG3 like matrix AAA peptidase subunit 2) This gene encodes a protein localized in mitochondria and closely related to paraplegin. The paraplegin gene is responsible for an autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. This gene is a candidate gene for other hereditary spastic paraplegias or neurodegenerative disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
TUBB6 (HGNC:20776): (tubulin beta 6 class V) Predicted to enable GTP binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cell cycle. Located in microtubule. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 616 of the AFG3L2 protein (p.Tyr616Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs387906889, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia (PMID: 22022284, 31111429). 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: 30427). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on AFG3L2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects AFG3L2 function (PMID: 22022284). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate this variant retains ATPase and proteolytic activities but exhibits impaired oligomerization with both the AFG3L2 protein and paraplegin, suggesting that the Y616C variant may represent a hypomorphic allele (Pierson et al., 2011); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); 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: 23777634, 21595125, 22022284, 23041622, 22593763, 26539208, 22290570, 30910913, 31111429, 28806058, 22228787, 34918652) -
