Genes affected
SPG7 (HGNC:11237): (SPG7 matrix AAA peptidase subunit, paraplegin) This gene encodes a mitochondrial metalloprotease protein that is a member of the AAA family. Members of this protein family share an ATPase domain and have roles in diverse cellular processes including membrane trafficking, intracellular motility, organelle biogenesis, protein folding, and proteolysis. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 7. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 743 of the SPG7 protein (p.Ile743Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs752623413, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive primary lateral sclerosis and hereditary spastic paraplegia and adult-onset upper motor neuron syndrome, ataxia, or progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PMID: 18799786, 22964162, 24727571, 25681447, 27123479). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215218). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SPG7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

A Heterozygous Missense variant c.2228T>C in Exon 17 of the SPG7 gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Ile743Thr was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00005/0.00003% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is medium, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score . Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as PathogenicLikelyPathogenic(Variant ID 215218). This variant has been previously reported in Pfeffer et al., 2015. Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines.

The observed missense variant c.2228T>Cp.Ile743Thr in SPG7 gene has been reported in homozygous/compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with Ataxia/Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7 Bogdanova-Mihaylova et al., 2021, Mancini et al., 2019. The p.Ile743Thr variant is reported with 0.005% allele freqeuncy in gnomAD Exomes. It has been submitted to ClinVar as Likely Pathogenic/ Pathogenic multiple submissions. Multiple lines of computational evidence Polyphen-probably damaging, SIFT-damaging and Mutation Taster-disease causing predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid Ile at position 743 is changed to a Thr changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The reference amino acid p.Ile743Thr in SPG7 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. However, experimental studies on the pathogenicity of the variant are not available. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: SPG7 c.2228T>C (p.Ile743Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Peptidase M41 domain (IPR000642) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251340 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2228T>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Ataxia/Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7 (e.g. van Gassen_2012, Coutelier_2018, Mancini_2019, Bogdanova-Mihaylova_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Missense variant of SPG7 predicted that is predicted to disrupt the function of the mitochondrial metalloprotease. The allele frequency is low (gnomAD AF = 4.95e-5) but the variant has previously been reported multiple times (13) through ClinVar for Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia 7, and spastic ataxia. In silico predictions support loss-of-function of the allele (CADD = 25.4; SIFT = 0.99). The metalloprotease is important for mitochondrial function, which correlates with the mitochondrial-related phenotypes of associated condition. Causes Spastic ataxia with episodic manifestations in compound heterozygosity with NM_003119.4 c.1861C>T.

The SPG7 c.2228T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile743Thr. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals with spastic paraplegia, upper motor disease, or ataxia (Brugman et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18799786; Pfeffer et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25681447; Coutelier et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29482223). This variant is reported in 0.0096% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/16-89623341-T-C). This variant has been classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/215218/). Given the evidence, we interpret c.2228T>C (p.Ile743Thr) as pathogenic for autosomal recessive disease.
