Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_003119.4(SPG7):c.185G>A(p.Ser62Asn) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000778 in 1,451,550 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 19/24 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S62R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary spastic paraplegia 7 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces serine with asparagine at codon 62 of the SPG7 protein (p.Ser62Asn). The serine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between serine and asparagine. This variant is present in population databases at a very low frequency  (rs143294686, ExAC <0.01%) but has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a SPG7-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). The asparagine amino acid residue is also found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a rare missense change that is not predicted to affect protein function. There is no indication that it causes disease, but the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
