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]

Observed with another ASPM variant in a patient with microcephaly, but it is not known whether the variants occurred on the same (in cis) or on different (in trans) chromosomes (Passemard et al., 2009); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19770472, 20301772, 28600779, 31589614, 25525159) -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21594). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with primary microcephaly (PMID: 19770472). This variant is present in population databases (rs199422168, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2078*) 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). -
