Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BP4_Strong

The NM_144991.3(TSPEAR):c.419C>A(p.Ala140Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000453 in 1,612,394 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A140T) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
TSPEAR (HGNC:1268): (thrombospondin type laminin G domain and EAR repeats) This gene encodes a protein that contains a N-terminal thrombospondin-type laminin G domain and several tandem arranged epilepsy-associated repeats (EARs). A mutation in this gene is the cause of autosomal recessive deafness-98. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 10, 2015The p.Ala140Asp variant in TSPEAR has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss, but has been identified in 8/9402 of African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP r s147904376). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational predi ction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Ala140Asp variant may n ot impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala140Asp vari ant is uncertain. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 09, 2024The c.419C>A (p.A140D) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the TSPEAR gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 419, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 140 to be replaced by an aspartic acid (D). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
