Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_014946.4(SPAST):c.1450G>C(p.Gly484Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a damaging 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. G484D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

SPAST (HGNC:11233): (spastin) This gene encodes a member of the AAA (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) protein family. Members of this protein family share an ATPase domain and have roles in diverse cellular processes including membrane trafficking, intracellular motility, organelle biogenesis, protein folding, and proteolysis. The use of alternative translational initiation sites in this gene results in a single transcript variant that can produce isoforms that differ in the length of their N-terminus and which thereby differ in the efficiency of their export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In addition, alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode isoforms that differ in other protein regions as well. One isoform of this gene has been shown to be a microtubule-severing enzyme that regulates microtubule abundance, mobility, and plus-end distribution. Mutations in this gene cause the most frequent form of autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia 4. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_014946.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.982
• PP5: Variant 2-32137145-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-32137145-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 448447.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Pathogenic=2, Uncertain_significance=1, Likely_pathogenic=1}. Variant chr2-32137145-G-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Hereditary spastic paraplegia 4 Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Paris Brain Institute, Inserm - ICM	-	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Apr 15, 2023	This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 24731568; Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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 expected to disrupt SPAST protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 448447). This missense change has been observed in at least one individual who was not affected with SPAST-related conditions (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 484 of the SPAST protein (p.Gly484Arg). -
