Genes affected
APTX (HGNC:15984): (aprataxin) This gene encodes a member of the histidine triad (HIT) superfamily. The encoded protein may play a role in single-stranded DNA repair through its nucleotide-binding activity and its diadenosine polyphosphate hydrolase activity. Mutations in this gene have been associated with ataxia-ocular apraxia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]
APTX Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • ataxia, early-onset, with oculomotor apraxia and hypoalbuminemia

Variant summary: APTX c.971A>T (p.Gln324Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Zinc finger C2H2-type domain (IPR013087) of the encoded protein sequence. Two of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.002 in 1614116 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0026 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 5 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in APTX causing Ataxia, Early-Onset, With Oculomotor Apraxia And Hypoalbuminemia phenotype. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.971A>T in individuals affected with Ataxia, Early-Onset, With Oculomotor Apraxia And Hypoalbuminemia and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 136416). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
