Genes affected
SPG7 (HGNC:11237): (SPG7 matrix AAA peptidase subunit, paraplegin) This gene encodes a mitochondrial metalloprotease protein that is a member of the AAA family. Members of this protein family share an ATPase domain and have roles in diverse cellular processes including membrane trafficking, intracellular motility, organelle biogenesis, protein folding, and proteolysis. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 7. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

Hereditary spastic paraplegia 7 Pathogenic:11
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 09, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu78*) in the SPG7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SPG7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21623769, 22964162). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918358, gnomAD 0.3%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 18200586, 22571692, 24727571). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6816). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The stop gained variant c.233T>A (p.Leu78Ter) in SPG7 gene has been observed in the literature in the homozygous state in 5 individuals from 3 families affected with HSP (Sanchez-Ferrero E et.al.,2013). This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. The c.233T>A variant is reported with allele frequency 0.04% in gnomAD exomes and novel in 1000 Genomes. The nucleotide change c.233T>A in SPG7 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Variant s in SPG7 genes are known to have both Autosomal dominant and Autosomal recessive pat t ern of inheritance (OMIM #607259)[1,2]. However, Autosomal dominant inheritance is not report ed for this variant in lit erature yet . -
