Genes affected
SPATA7 (HGNC:20423): (spermatogenesis associated 7) This gene, originally isolated from testis, is also expressed in retina. Mutations in this gene are associated with Leber congenital amaurosis and juvenile retinitis pigmentosa. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingRevvity Omics, RevvityNov 19, 2021- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 17, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys96*) in the SPATA7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SPATA7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19268277, 22334370, 23847139, 26047050, 26261414). This variant is present in population databases (rs767745816, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with inherited retinal dystrophy (PMID: 26306921). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191050). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteMay 06, 2021Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Leber congenital amaurosis 3 (MIM#604232) and autosomal recessive juvenile retinitis pigmentosa (MIM#604232). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (7 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. More than 10 NMD-predicted variants in this gene have been reported in patients (PMID: 31908400, ClinVar). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. It has been reported in multiple patients with retinitis pigmentosa or Leber congenital amaurosis (PMIDs: 26355662, 26261414, 26306921). (SP) 1201 - Heterozygous variant detected in trans with a second pathogenic heterozygous variant (c.1126_1127delGA) in a recessive disease. (SP) 1205 - This variant has been shown to be maternally inherited. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
