Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_014946.4(SPAST):c.1276C>G(p.Leu426Val) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L426F) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Hereditary spastic paraplegia 4 Pathogenic:4

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SPAST function (PMID: 11809724). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SPAST protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 409031). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 10699187, 11843700, 15841487, 20718791, 20932283, 22960362). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 426 of the SPAST protein (p.Leu426Val). -

The L426V variant in the SPAST gene has been reported previously in multiple unrelated individuals with childhood and adult onset hereditary spastic paraplegia (Fonknechten et al., 2000; Meijer et al., 2002; Alvarez et al., 2010; McCorquodale et al., 2011; Nanetti et al., 2012). Functional studies demonstrate that overexpression of the L426V variant results in constitutive binding to microtubules, and may potentially alter their regulation (Errico et al., 2001). The L426V variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. This substitution occurs at a position, within the AAA ATPase domain, that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret L426V as a pathogenic variant. -
