Genes affected
SACS (HGNC:10519): (sacsin molecular chaperone) This gene encodes the sacsin protein, which includes a UbL domain at the N-terminus, a DnaJ domain, and a HEPN domain at the C-terminus. The gene is highly expressed in the central nervous system, also found in skin, skeletal muscles and at low levels in the pancreas. This gene includes a very large exon spanning more than 12.8 kb. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by early-onset cerebellar ataxia with spasticity and peripheral neuropathy. The authors of a publication on the effects of siRNA-mediated sacsin knockdown concluded that sacsin protects against mutant ataxin-1 and suggest that "the large multi-domain sacsin protein is able to recruit Hsp70 chaperone action and has the potential to regulate the effects of other ataxia proteins" (Parfitt et al., PubMed: 19208651). A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Spastic paraplegia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 27, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2703 of the SACS protein (p.Arg2703His). This variant is present in population databases (rs750181262, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 26288984; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553081). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SACS protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg2703 amino acid residue in SACS. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16007637, 29277257). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
