Genes affected
SYNE1 (HGNC:17089): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 1) This gene encodes a spectrin repeat containing protein expressed in skeletal and smooth muscle, and peripheral blood lymphocytes, that localizes to the nuclear membrane. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 8, also referred to as autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia type 1 or recessive ataxia of Beauce. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 3038 of the SYNE1 protein (p.Arg3038Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs144643941, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 393008). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The glycine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
