Genes affected
SACS (HGNC:10519): (sacsin molecular chaperone) This gene encodes the sacsin protein, which includes a UbL domain at the N-terminus, a DnaJ domain, and a HEPN domain at the C-terminus. The gene is highly expressed in the central nervous system, also found in skin, skeletal muscles and at low levels in the pancreas. This gene includes a very large exon spanning more than 12.8 kb. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by early-onset cerebellar ataxia with spasticity and peripheral neuropathy. The authors of a publication on the effects of siRNA-mediated sacsin knockdown concluded that sacsin protects against mutant ataxin-1 and suggest that "the large multi-domain sacsin protein is able to recruit Hsp70 chaperone action and has the potential to regulate the effects of other ataxia proteins" (Parfitt et al., PubMed: 19208651). A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -18 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_014363.6
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.007412821).
BP6
Variant 13-23335749-T-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr13-23335749-T-G is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 416832.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00629 (957/152262) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0223 (927/41570). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0211. There are 6 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 412 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 6 AR gene
