Genes affected

ASPM (HGNC:19048): (assembly factor for spindle microtubules) This gene is the human ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster 'abnormal spindle' gene (asp), which is essential for normal mitotic spindle function in embryonic neuroblasts. Studies in mouse also suggest a role of this gene in mitotic spindle regulation, with a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with microcephaly primary type 5. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 11, 2024	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg3354*) in the ASPM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ASPM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19028728, 23611254). This variant is present in population databases (rs748529285, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with primary microcephaly (PMID: 20679666). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 210343). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Oct 17, 2022	Reported previously in a patient with primary microcephaly who also harbored a second variant on the same allele (in cis) and a third variant on a different allele (in trans) (Halsall et al., 2010); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 25786579, 20679666) -
