Genes affected

ASPM (HGNC:19048): (assembly factor for spindle microtubules) This gene is the human ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster 'abnormal spindle' gene (asp), which is essential for normal mitotic spindle function in embryonic neuroblasts. Studies in mouse also suggest a role of this gene in mitotic spindle regulation, with a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with microcephaly primary type 5. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-197142521-GCT-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-197142521-GCT-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 402179.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-197142521-GCT-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr1-197142521-GCT-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Nov 24, 2022	ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 402179). This variant is also known as c.1727delAG. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with primary microcephaly (PMID: 14574646). This variant is present in population databases (rs747238090, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser577Argfs*33) in the ASPM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ASPM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19028728, 23611254). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
