Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2 PM5

The NM_006415.4(SPTLC1):​c.1054G>A​(p.Ala352Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,786 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A352V) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

SPTLC1 (HGNC:11277): (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 1) This gene encodes a member of the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. The encoded protein is the long chain base subunit 1 of serine palmitoyltransferase. Serine palmitoyltransferase converts L-serine and palmitoyl-CoA to 3-oxosphinganine with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and is the key enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene were identified in patients with hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 1, 6, 10, and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr9-92047198-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine with threonine at codon 352 of the SPTLC1 protein (p.Ala352Thr). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and threonine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SPTLC1-related disease. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). The observation of one missense substitutions at this codon (p.A352V) in affected individuals suggests that this may be a clinically significant residue (PMID: 21618344, 19651702). -
