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]

Charlevoix-Saguenay spastic ataxia Pathogenic:3
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 12, 2023Variant summary: SACS c.9404T>C (p.Leu3135Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 248822 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.9404T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia Of Charlevoix-Saguenay (Parkinson_2018). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29538656). Four ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: two classified the variant as uncertain significance, one as likely pathogenic, and one as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Spastic paraplegia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 27, 2023This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 3135 of the SACS protein (p.Leu3135Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs371019314, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (PMID: 29538656; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411687). 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 not expected to disrupt SACS protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsOct 10, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In multiple individuals with clinical features associated with this gene, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic. Computational tools predict that this variant is damaging. -
