Genes affected
SPTLC2 (HGNC:11278): (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 2) This gene encodes a long chain base subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase. Serine palmitoyltransferase, which consists of two different subunits, is the key enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis. It catalyzes the pyridoxal-5-prime-phosphate-dependent condensation of L-serine and palmitoyl-CoA to 3-oxosphinganine. Mutations in this gene were identified in patients with hereditary sensory neuropathy type I. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

Submissions by phenotype

Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 1C Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 25, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 326 of the SPTLC2 protein (p.Arg326His). This variant is present in population databases (rs116822112, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SPTLC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 579155). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesFeb 05, 2022The SPTLC2 c.977G>A; p.Arg326His variant (rs116822112), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 579155). This variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.0053% (6/113,698 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 326 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.565). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 13, 2022The p.R326H variant (also known as c.977G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the SPTLC2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 977. The arginine at codon 326 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
