Genes affected
SACS (HGNC:10519): (sacsin molecular chaperone) This gene encodes the sacsin protein, which includes a UbL domain at the N-terminus, a DnaJ domain, and a HEPN domain at the C-terminus. The gene is highly expressed in the central nervous system, also found in skin, skeletal muscles and at low levels in the pancreas. This gene includes a very large exon spanning more than 12.8 kb. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by early-onset cerebellar ataxia with spasticity and peripheral neuropathy. The authors of a publication on the effects of siRNA-mediated sacsin knockdown concluded that sacsin protects against mutant ataxin-1 and suggest that "the large multi-domain sacsin protein is able to recruit Hsp70 chaperone action and has the potential to regulate the effects of other ataxia proteins" (Parfitt et al., PubMed: 19208651). A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 07, 2023Variant summary: SACS c.13717A>C (p.Asn4573His) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0032 in 250932 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0052 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SACS causing Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia Of Charlevoix-Saguenay (0.0032 vs 0.0079), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.13717A>C has been reported in the literature, primarily in the heterozygous state and in settings of multigene panel testing, in individuals affected with ataxias and other movement disorders, without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Vermeer_2009, Fogel_2012, Morais_2017, Martinez-Rubio_2022, OGorman_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia Of Charlevoix-Saguenay. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22287014, 36233161, 28832565, 31519934, 19779133). Thirteen submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified it as benign (n=1)/likely benign (n=8), VUS (n=3), or likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
