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 Benign. Variant got -21 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.84).
• BP6: Variant 1-197104802-T-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-197104802-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 21586.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-197104802-T-C is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.911 with no splicing effect.
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (NFE) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.432 is higher than 0.05.

Microcephaly 5, primary, autosomal recessive Benign:4 Other:1

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 13, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
