Genes affected
SYNE1 (HGNC:17089): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 1) This gene encodes a spectrin repeat containing protein expressed in skeletal and smooth muscle, and peripheral blood lymphocytes, that localizes to the nuclear membrane. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 8, also referred to as autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia type 1 or recessive ataxia of Beauce. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) Polyphen and MutationTaster predict this amino acid change may be benign. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The SYNE1 p.Val2849Ala variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs375079396), ClinVar (classified as a VUS by EGL Genetics and Invitae) and LOVD 3.0 (classified as a VUS). The variant was also identified in control databases in 25 of 282710 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000088 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 19 of 24968 chromosomes (freq: 0.000761) and Latino in 6 of 35434 chromosomes (freq: 0.000169), while the variant was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), European (non-Finnish), Other or South Asian populations. The p.Val2849 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2856 of the SYNE1 protein (p.Val2856Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs375079396, gnomAD 0.08%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 285095). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
