Genes affected
AFG2A (HGNC:18119): (AFG2 AAA ATPase homolog A) This gene encodes a member of the ATPase associated with diverse activities family, whose members are defined by a highly conserved ATPase domain. Members of this family participate in diverse cellular processes that include membrane fusion, DNA replication, microtubule severing, and protein degradation. The protein encoded by this gene has a putative mitochondrial targeting sequence and has been proposed to function in maintenance of mitochondrial function and integrity during mouse spermatogenesis. Allelic variants in this gene have been associated with epilepsy, hearing loss, and cognitive disability syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points.

PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 22 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 7 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.46019 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.2041 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to microcephaly-intellectual disability-sensorineural hearing loss-epilepsy-abnormal muscle tone syndrome.
PP5
Variant 4-123028228-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-123028228-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 568026.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.32842702). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000171 (26/152284) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.00131 (20/15290). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000866. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 13 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

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

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 638 of the SPATA5 protein (p.Lys638Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs560475969, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with epilepsy (internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 568026). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SPATA5 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Identified in two patients with epilepsy in published literature, however, a second SPATA5 variant is not described (PMID: 34926809); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34926809) -

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

Variant summary: SPATA5 c.1912A>G (p.Lys638Glu) 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 3.6e-05 in 251436 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.1912A>G, has been reported together with a deletion of exons 12-13 in an abstract describing an individual suspected of Epilepsy, Hearing Loss, And Mental Retardation Syndrome (Khurana_2019). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Two laboratories classified the variant as likely pathogenic and one as VUS). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

GenomeConnect does not attempt to reinterpret the variant. The IDDRC-CTSA National Brain Gene Registry (BGR) is a study funded by the U.S. National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and includes 13 Intellectual and Developmental Disability Research Center (IDDRC) institutions. The study is led by Principal Investigator Dr. Philip Payne from Washington University. The BGR is a data commons of gene variants paired with subject clinical information. This database helps scientists learn more about genetic changes and their impact on the brain and behavior. Participation in the Brain Gene Registry requires participation in GenomeConnect.
