Genes affected

SPG7 (HGNC:11237): (SPG7 matrix AAA peptidase subunit, paraplegin) This gene encodes a mitochondrial metalloprotease protein that is a member of the AAA 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. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 7. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met699Ilefs*4) in the SPG7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SPG7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21623769, 22964162). This variant is present in population databases (rs747503698, gnomAD 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SPG7-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411678). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: SPG7 c.2096dupT (p.Met699IlefsX4) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 248248 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 9.9e-05 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SPG7 causing Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2096dupT has been reported in the literature in unspecified individuals undertaking genetic testing, however not all the information was provided for further analysis (Stranneheim_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33726816). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411678). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant results in a frameshift and is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. It was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018) and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score for this variant, it could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene and cDNA change, and amino acid change. No publications were found based on this search. Due to the potential impact of frameshift variants and the lack of clarifying evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for this disease. -

The SPG7 c.2096dupT variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Met699Ilefs*4). This variant has been reported in the literature; however, phenotypes of the individuals carrying this variant were not specified (Stranneheim et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33726816; 100,000 Genomes Project Pilot Investigators et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34758253). This variant is reported in 0.0095% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in SPG7 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
