Genes affected

AFG3L2 (HGNC:315): (AFG3 like matrix AAA peptidase subunit 2) This gene encodes a protein localized in mitochondria and closely related to paraplegin. The paraplegin gene is responsible for an autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. This gene is a candidate gene for other hereditary spastic paraplegias or neurodegenerative disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

TUBB6 (HGNC:20776): (tubulin beta 6 class V) Predicted to enable GTP binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cell cycle. Located in microtubule. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

TUBB6 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• facial palsy, congenital, with ptosis and velopharyngeal dysfunction

  Inheritance: Unknown Classification: LIMITED Submitted by: Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae)

LOC107985154 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_006796.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 37 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 9 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.988 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.0639 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to spastic ataxia 5, optic atrophy 12, spinocerebellar ataxia type 28.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.934
• PP5: Variant 18-12337445-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-12337445-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 5470.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 20208537). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.88; 3Cnet: 0.20). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with AFG3L2-related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000005470 / PMID: 20208537). The variant has been reported to co-segregate with the disease in at least 5 similarly affected relatives/individuals in the same family or similarly affected unrelated families (PMID: 20208537). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
