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]

Variant summary: DCTN1 c.3302G>A (p.Arg1101Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 249326 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3302G>A has been reported in the literature as heterozygous genotype in individuals affected with DCTN1-Related amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) in two siblings in one family respectively (Munch_2005). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with DCTN1-Related Disorders. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Stockmann_2013). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16240349, 23143281). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8405). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R1101K variant (also known as c.3302G>A), located in coding exon 28 of the DCTN1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3302. The arginine at codon 1101 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was identified in the heterozygous state in a pair of siblings, one of whom had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and one of whom had frontotemporal dementia (FTD) (Münch C et al. Ann Neurol, 2005 Nov;58:777-80). In vitro experimental studies show that this alteration does not significantly impact protein function (Dixit R et al. J Biol Chem, 2008 Nov;283:33611-9; Stockmann M et al. J Neural Transm (Vienna), 2013 May;120:785-98). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species; however, lysine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1101 of the DCTN1 protein (p.Arg1101Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs121909345, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia (PMID: 16240349). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8405). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DCTN1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect DCTN1 function (PMID: 18812314, 23143281). 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. -
