Genes affected
SACS (HGNC:10519): (sacsin molecular chaperone) This gene encodes the sacsin protein, which includes a UbL domain at the N-terminus, a DnaJ domain, and a HEPN domain at the C-terminus. The gene is highly expressed in the central nervous system, also found in skin, skeletal muscles and at low levels in the pancreas. This gene includes a very large exon spanning more than 12.8 kb. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by early-onset cerebellar ataxia with spasticity and peripheral neuropathy. The authors of a publication on the effects of siRNA-mediated sacsin knockdown concluded that sacsin protects against mutant ataxin-1 and suggest that "the large multi-domain sacsin protein is able to recruit Hsp70 chaperone action and has the potential to regulate the effects of other ataxia proteins" (Parfitt et al., PubMed: 19208651). A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 19, 2023Variant summary: SACS c.1607C>T (p.Pro536Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251216 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1607C>T has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia Of Charlevoix-Saguenay (e.g. Anheim_2008, Ganapathy_2016, Longo_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Using fibroblasts from a compound heterozygous patient, the variant protein was found to undergo rapid ubiquitination and degradation, resulting in undetectable levels of mature SACS protein (Longo_2021). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18439928, 31069529, 34649874). Four ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: one classified the variant as uncertain significance, and three as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Nov 08, 2021NM_014363.4(SACS):c.1607C>T(P536L) is a missense variant classified as a variant of uncertain significance in the context of autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay. P536L has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 18439928). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. P536L has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: NFE 0.002%). In summary, there is insufficient evidence to classify NM_014363.4(SACS):c.1607C>T(P536L) as pathogenic or benign. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
Spastic paraplegia Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 20, 2023This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 536 of the SACS protein (p.Pro536Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with SACS-related conditions (PMID: 18439928, 31069529, 34649874). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 449520). 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 not expected to disrupt SACS protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 12, 2017The P536L variant in the SACS gene has been reported previously in association with autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (Anheim et al., 2008). The P536L variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The P536L variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. Additionally, this substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret P536L as a likely pathogenic variant. -
