Genes affected
KIF1A (HGNC:888): (kinesin family member 1A) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the kinesin family and functions as an anterograde motor protein that transports membranous organelles along axonal microtubules. Mutations at this locus have been associated with spastic paraplegia-30 and hereditary sensory neuropathy IIC. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 17, 2020Variant summary: KIF1A c.2555+1023delT (NM_004321.7) is located in the intron 25 of the KIF1A gene. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 150700 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication data). The KIF1A gene comprises 47 exons plus some alternatively spliced coding exons and has multiple different transcripts. In one of the alternative transcripts (NM_001244008.1) the variant is predicted to cause a frameshift change (c.2840delT, p.Leu947ArgfsX4). Riviere et al (2011) report c.2840delT, in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state, in 4 different families with multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Sensory And Autonomic Neuropathy Type IIC. They specify the variant is located in the alternatively spliced exon 25b and provide evidence that KIF1A exon-25b-containing isoform is strongly expressed in the nervous system. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. A ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

KIF1A-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 28, 2023The KIF1A c.2840delT variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Leu947Argfs*4). This variant may also be described as ENST00000320389.11 c.2555+1023del, and has been reported to be causative for autosomal recessive hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type II in nine patients from four families (Rivière et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21820098). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in KIF1A are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 01, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65859). This variant is also known as c.2840delT (p.Leu947Argfs*4). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (PMID: 21820098). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 24 of the KIF1A gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the KIF1A protein. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
