Genes affected

SPAST (HGNC:11233): (spastin) This gene encodes a member of the AAA (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) protein family. Members of this protein family share an ATPase domain and have roles in diverse cellular processes including membrane trafficking, intracellular motility, organelle biogenesis, protein folding, and proteolysis. The use of alternative translational initiation sites in this gene results in a single transcript variant that can produce isoforms that differ in the length of their N-terminus and which thereby differ in the efficiency of their export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In addition, alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode isoforms that differ in other protein regions as well. One isoform of this gene has been shown to be a microtubule-severing enzyme that regulates microtubule abundance, mobility, and plus-end distribution. Mutations in this gene cause the most frequent form of autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia 4. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_014946.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.
• PP5: Variant 2-32128439-CCTT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-32128439-CCTT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 521727.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant, c.1209_1211del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the SPAST protein (p.Phe404del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) (PMID: 12163196, 16009769, 20932283, 24731568). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 521727). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) The p.Phe404del variant was identified in multiple unrelated individuals with clinical features associated with this gene. In some published literature, this variant is referred to as c. 1334-1336delCTT. Assessment of experimental evidence regarding the effect of this variant on protein function is inconclusive. The mutant protein altered protein localization and exhibited increased alpha-tubulin acetylation, which is an indicator of stable microtubule (PMID: 34715294), but the effect on neural development and disease was not undertaken. The variant is located in a region that is considered important for protein function and/or structure. -
