Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:3
Reported 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 (PMID: 33397523, 17159980); 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) -

This 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. -
Autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia Pathogenic:1
The 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
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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). Experimental studies have shown that this variant disrupts mRNA splicing (PMID: 17159980). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cerebellar ataxia (PMID: 17159980, 31103315). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 667389). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This 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. -
