Genes affected

ATXN2 (HGNC:10555): (ataxin 2) This gene belongs to a group of genes that is associated with microsatellite-expansion diseases, a class of neurological and neuromuscular disorders caused by expansion of short stretches of repetitive DNA. The protein encoded by this gene has two globular domains near the N-terminus, one of which contains a clathrin-mediated trans-Golgi signal and an endoplasmic reticulum exit signal. The encoded cytoplasmic protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane, is involved in endocytosis, and modulates mTOR signals, modifying ribosomal translation and mitochondrial function. The N-terminal region of the protein contains a polyglutamine tract of 14-31 residues that can be expanded in the pathogenic state to 32-200 residues. Intermediate length expansions of this tract increase susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, while long expansions of this tract result in spinocerebellar ataxia-2, an autosomal-dominantly inherited, neurodegenerative disorder. Genome-wide association studies indicate that loss-of-function mutations in this gene may be associated with susceptibility to type I diabetes, obesity and hypertension. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -14 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.52).
• BP6: Variant 12-111599125-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr12-111599125-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 128508.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars. Variant chr12-111599125-G-A is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.132 with no splicing effect.
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (NFE) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.779 is higher than 0.05.
