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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.023230687 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.1, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: gctggattttttttttttAGgcg. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
BP6
Variant 2-32141890-A-AT is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-32141890-A-AT is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 415378.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00023 (34/147548) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000424 (2/4720). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000139. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 21 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
