Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PS3 PM2 PP3 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001270400.2(TUBA1A):​c.-101G>A variant causes a 5 prime UTR premature start codon gain change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002767684: This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Functional and computer modelling suggest that p.(Arg2His) has subtle effects on microtubule function, possibly acting at the interdimer interface (PMID:30087272)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar.

Genes affected

TUBA1A (HGNC:20766): (tubulin alpha 1a) Microtubules of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton perform essential and diverse functions and are composed of a heterodimer of alpha and beta tubulins. The genes encoding these microtubule constituents belong to the tubulin superfamily, which is composed of six distinct families. Genes from the alpha, beta and gamma tubulin families are found in all eukaryotes. The alpha and beta tubulins represent the major components of microtubules, while gamma tubulin plays a critical role in the nucleation of microtubule assembly. There are multiple alpha and beta tubulin genes, which are highly conserved among species. This gene encodes alpha tubulin and is highly similar to the mouse and rat Tuba1 genes. Northern blot studies have shown that the gene expression is predominantly found in morphologically differentiated neurologic cells. This gene is one of three alpha-tubulin genes in a cluster on chromosome 12q. Mutations in this gene cause lissencephaly type 3 (LIS3) - a neurological condition characterized by microcephaly, intellectual disability, and early-onset epilepsy caused by defective neuronal migration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

TUBA1B-AS1 (HGNC:56356): (TUBA1B antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV002767684: This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Functional and computer modelling suggest that p.(Arg2His) has subtle effects on microtubule function, possibly acting at the interdimer interface (PMID: 30087272).; SCV004295049: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TUBA1A function (PMID: 30087272).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. No scorers claiming Uncertain. Scorers claiming Benign: max_spliceai.
• PP5: Variant 12-49186832-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-49186832-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 160161.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
