Genes affected
ASAH1 (HGNC:735): (N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase 1) This gene encodes a member of the acid ceramidase family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed. Processing of this preproprotein generates alpha and beta subunits that heterodimerize to form the mature lysosomal enzyme, which catalyzes the degradation of ceramide into sphingosine and free fatty acid. This enzyme is overexpressed in multiple human cancers and may play a role in cancer progression. Mutations in this gene are associated with the lysosomal storage disorder, Farber lipogranulomatosis, and a neuromuscular disorder, spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy.

Variant summary: ASAH1 c.-709G>C is located in the untranscribed region upstream of the ASAH1 gene region. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0012 in 1613634 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 7 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 1.08-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ASAH1 causing Farber lipogranulomatosis phenotype (0.0011). c.-709G>C (also reported as c.35G>C) has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with clinical features of Farber lipogranulomatosis who carried 2 additional ASAH1 variants, a frameshift and missense variant, classified by authors as pathogenic and VUS, respectively, without phase reported (e.g. Axente_2021). The variant was also reported in individuals affected with Rolanidic epilepsy, without evidence of causality (e.g. Bobbili_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Farber lipogranulomatosis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34377212, 29358611). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 433108). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
