Genes affected
SYNE1 (HGNC:17089): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 1) This gene encodes a spectrin repeat containing protein expressed in skeletal and smooth muscle, and peripheral blood lymphocytes, that localizes to the nuclear membrane. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 8, also referred to as autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia type 1 or recessive ataxia of Beauce. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.0068955068 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.5, offset of -1, new splice context is: ttcattttggtgaccatcAGggt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsNov 20, 2020This variant is expected to severely impact normal RNA splicing, and consequently, protein structure and/or function. The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been identified in at least one individual with clinical features associated with this gene. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 27, 2022Reported with a second variant in the SYNE1 gene in patients with ataxia in the literature; however, segregation information and/or information about the second variant was not provided for all cases (Gros-Louis et al., 2007; Haj Salem et al., 2021); Canonical splice site variant expected to result in aberrant splicing, although in the absence of functional evidence the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown; Deletions involving coding exons of this gene are a known mechanism of disease (HGMD); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17159980, 25525159, 27782104, 25843669, 31103315, 33397523) -
Autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 11, 2019The c.16390-2A>G variant in SYNE1 has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in 2 French-Canadian families with autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia (Gros-Louis 2007). Although the variant was reported to segregate with disease i n affected family members, it is unclear how many individuals were tested. The c .16390-2A>G variant has also been identified in 0.001% (1/113116) of European ch romosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant occurs with in the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and functional studies demonstrate that i t results in the insertion of single nucleotide, which is then predicted to caus e a frameshift leading to a truncated or absent protein (Gros-Louis 2007). Altho ugh, the variant falls within an alternatively spliced exon of the SYNE1 gene, i soforms containing this exon are expressed in the cerebellum (Razafsky 2015; GTE x, https://gtexportal.org). Loss of function of the SYNE1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia. In summary, althoug h additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the c.16390-2A>G variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic fo r autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia.

Autosomal recessive ataxia, Beauce type;C2751807:Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy 4, autosomal dominant Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 03, 2020This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 84 of the SYNE1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cerebellar ataxia (PMID: 17159980, 31103315). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 667389). Experimental studies have shown that this variant disrupts mRNA splicing (PMID: 17159980). Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in SYNE1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19542096, 24319099, 27086870). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
