Genes affected
ASPM (HGNC:19048): (assembly factor for spindle microtubules) This gene is the human ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster 'abnormal spindle' gene (asp), which is essential for normal mitotic spindle function in embryonic neuroblasts. Studies in mouse also suggest a role of this gene in mitotic spindle regulation, with a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with microcephaly primary type 5. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 650 of the ASPM protein (p.Ser650Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs112997359, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ASPM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 157789). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ASPM protein function. 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. -

The c.1949C>G (p.S650C) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the ASPM gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1949, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 650 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
