Genes affected

DCTN1 (HGNC:2711): (dynactin subunit 1) This gene encodes the largest subunit of dynactin, a macromolecular complex consisting of 10 subunits ranging in size from 22 to 150 kD. Dynactin binds to both microtubules and cytoplasmic dynein. Dynactin is involved in a diverse array of cellular functions, including ER-to-Golgi transport, the centripetal movement of lysosomes and endosomes, spindle formation, chromosome movement, nuclear positioning, and axonogenesis. This subunit interacts with dynein intermediate chain by its domains directly binding to dynein and binds to microtubules via a highly conserved glycine-rich cytoskeleton-associated protein (CAP-Gly) domain in its N-terminus. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. Mutations in this gene cause distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VIIB (HMN7B) which is also known as distal spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (dSBMA). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Y878C variant (also known as c.2633A>G), located in coding exon 23 of the DCTN1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2633. The tyrosine at codon 878 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 878 of the DCTN1 protein (p.Tyr878Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs778201974, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (PMID: 23143281). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 568956). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect DCTN1 function (PMID: 23143281). 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. -

Variant summary: DCTN1 c.2633A>G (p.Tyr878Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.7e-05 in 1614058 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 26-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DCTN1 causing Neuronopathy, distal hereditary motor, type 7B phenotype (1e-06). c.2633A>G has been reported in the literature in cohorts of individuals affected with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Stockmann_2013, Pensato_2020, Grassano_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and found the variant did not result in substantial changes to cellular morphology in vitro (Stockmann_2013). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35896380, 23143281, 32028661). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 568956). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
