Genes affected
SPTLC2 (HGNC:11278): (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 2) This gene encodes a long chain base subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase. Serine palmitoyltransferase, which consists of two different subunits, is the key enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis. It catalyzes the pyridoxal-5-prime-phosphate-dependent condensation of L-serine and palmitoyl-CoA to 3-oxosphinganine. Mutations in this gene were identified in patients with hereditary sensory neuropathy type I. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 1C Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 15, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 543 of the SPTLC2 protein (p.Arg543Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs763898397, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SPTLC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 440307). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 18, 2022The c.1628G>A (p.R543Q) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 12) of the SPTLC2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1628, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 543 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
