Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001244008.2(KIF1A):​c.746T>C​(p.Leu249Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L249Q) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 9 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_001244008.2
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-240783791-A-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 162061.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
PP2
Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, KIF1A
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
PP5
Variant 2-240783791-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-240783791-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 986214.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 21, 2020The p.Leu249Pro variant in KIF1A has been reported as de novo through trio WES in an individual with features associated with KIF1A-related neurological disorder (KAND), such as severe developmental delay, cerebellar ataxia and atrophy on MRI, spastic paraparesis, and eye findings. The individual also carried a de novo duplication of 22q11.23 that is known to demonstrate variable expression and incomplete penetrance (Demily 2018, PMID: 29589274). The p.Leu249Pro variant was also confirmed to be de novo through trio whole genome sequencing in a young woman with developmental delay, seizures, hypotonia, intellectual disability, cerebellar atrophy, and cortical visual impairment by the Broad Institute Rare Genomes Project. It was absent from large population studies. Another variant involving this codon (p.Leu249Gln) has been identified in other individuals with KIF1A-related neurological disorder (ClinVar variation ID 162061) suggesting that changes at this codon are not tolerated. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. The number of missense variants reported in this region of the KIF1A gene in the general population is lower than expected, suggesting that a missense variant in this region may not be tolerated. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant KIF1A-related neurological disorder.
