The NM_015915.5(ATL1):c.715C>T(p.Arg239Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000685 in 1,460,004 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R239H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

ATL1 (HGNC:11231): (atlastin GTPase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a GTPase and a Golgi body transmembrane protein. The encoded protein can form a homotetramer and has been shown to interact with spastin and with mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4. This protein may be involved in axonal maintenance as evidenced by the fact that defects in this gene are a cause of spastic paraplegia type 3. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	curation	SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics	May 31, 2018	This variant is interpreted as a Pathogenic, for Spastic paraplegia 3, autosomal dominant, in Autosomal Dominant manner. The following ACMG Tag(s) were applied: PP1-Strong => PP1 upgraded in strength to Strong (PMID:14607301) (PMID:11685207). PM2 => Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium. PS4-Moderate => Recurrent mutation in independent families (PMID:20932283,11685207,20718791,14607301). PS3-Moderate => PS3 downgraded in strength to Moderate (PMID:17321752). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 26, 2024	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 239 of the ATL1 protein (p.Arg239Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 14607301, 15517445, 19652243, 25637064). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4346). 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 expected to disrupt ATL1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ATL1 function (PMID: 16537571, 20816793, 23079343). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Dec 24, 2019	Variant summary: ATL1 c.715C>T (p.Arg239Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Guanylate-binding domain, N-terminal (IPR015894) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251004 control chromosomes. c.715C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Spastic paraplegia 3 (Zhao_2001, Novarino_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity as evidenced by a disruption in BMPRII trafficking to the cell surface cell surface (example, Zhao_2013). Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Molecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne Hospital	Jul 07, 2023	P1: HP:0001258, P2: HP:0001258 This sequence change in ATL1 is predicted to replace arginine with cysteine at codon 239, p.(Arg239Cys). The arginine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the GB1/RHD3-type G domain. There is a large physicochemical difference between arginine and cysteine. This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v3.1. This is a recurrent variant that has been reported in at least 15 probands/families with pure hereditary spastic paraplegia, and segregates with disease in multiple families (PMID: 15517445, 16612642, 19652243, 20718791, 20932283, 20947813, 25637064). Functional assays in heterologous systems showed impaired GTPase activity, and altered endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi morphology indicating that this variant impacts protein function (PMID: 16537571, 17321752). Computational evidence is uninformative for the missense substitution (REVEL=0.5). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PS4, PP1_Strong, PS3_Supporting, PM2_Supporting. -
