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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 148 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 21 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.2438 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.22274 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hereditary spastic paraplegia 4, SPAST-related motor disorder, Charlevoix-Saguenay spastic ataxia, neurodevelopmental disorder.
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 2-32114825-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-32114825-G-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1807003.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
