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, IlluminaSep 13, 2018The SACS c.2996T>C (p.Ile999Thr) missense variant has been reported in a single individual in a compound heterozygous state with a missense variant (Muona et al. 2015). This individual was clinically diagnosed with progressive myoclonus epilepsy but had clinical features consistent for ARSACS. The p.Ile999Thr variant is reported at a frequency of 0.00028 in the African population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the limited evidence, the p.Ile999Thr variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for ARSACS. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsDec 05, 2022Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational tools disagree on the variant's effect on normal protein function. -
