Genes affected

DCTN1 (HGNC:2711): (dynactin subunit 1) This gene encodes the largest subunit of dynactin, a macromolecular complex consisting of 10 subunits ranging in size from 22 to 150 kD. Dynactin binds to both microtubules and cytoplasmic dynein. Dynactin is involved in a diverse array of cellular functions, including ER-to-Golgi transport, the centripetal movement of lysosomes and endosomes, spindle formation, chromosome movement, nuclear positioning, and axonogenesis. This subunit interacts with dynein intermediate chain by its domains directly binding to dynein and binds to microtubules via a highly conserved glycine-rich cytoskeleton-associated protein (CAP-Gly) domain in its N-terminus. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. Mutations in this gene cause distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VIIB (HMN7B) which is also known as distal spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (dSBMA). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

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

• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.00000821 (12/1461468) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000139 (12/86226). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00008. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 7 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 12 AD gene.
