Genes affected
GAN (HGNC:4137): (gigaxonin) This gene encodes a member of the cytoskeletal BTB/kelch (Broad-Complex, Tramtrack and Bric a brac) repeat family. The encoded protein plays a role in neurofilament architecture and is involved in mediating the ubiquitination and degradation of some proteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of giant axonal neuropathy (GAN). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the GAN gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the GAN protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs370881573, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GAN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465388). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
