Baylor Genetics | RCV000004126 | SCV000245491 | pathogenic | Tay-Sachs disease | 2015-07-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant has been previously reported as disease-causing and was found twice in our laboratory in trans with another pathogenic variant: in a 25-year-old female [with c.820-7G>A] with motor delay, hypotonia, scoliosis, progressive weakness, mild ankle contractures, mildly diminished sensation, gait abnormalities, sister possibly similarly symptomatic (not tested); in a 1-year-old male [with Y427fs] with IUGR, severe delays with regression, hypotonia, epilepsy, microcephaly, FTT, polymicrogyria, absent HEXA activity. Variant pathogenic in recessive state; heterozygotes are carriers. |
Invitae | RCV000004126 | SCV000260622 | pathogenic | Tay-Sachs disease | 2020-01-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 9 of the HEXA gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs76173977, ExAC 0.04%). This is a common variant in Tay-Sachs disease patients of Western European origin (PMID: 8490625, 1387685, 19858779). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3920). Experimental studies have shown that this variant interferes with normal RNA splicing (PMID: 8444467, 1301938). Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in HEXA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1833974, 8490625). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |

RCV000079047 | SCV000329361 | pathogenic | not provided | 2018-07-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1073+1 G>A splice site variant in the HEXA gene has been previously reported in association with Tay-Sachs disease (Akli et al., 1991; Akli et al., 1993). This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice donor site in intron 9, and activates a cryptic donor site 17 base pairs downstream, which leads to a shift in the reading frame and a premature Stop codon (Akli et al., 1993). In summary, we interpret c.1073+1 G>A to be a pathogenic variant. |

Integrated Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America | RCV000004126 | SCV000697161 | pathogenic | Tay-Sachs disease | 2016-11-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: The HEXA c.1073+1G>A variant involves the alteration of a highly conserved nucleotide in the canonical splice donor site in intron 9. This variant was found in 27/119996 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0003776 (25/66208). This frequency is about lower the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic HEXA variant (0.0013975). This variant is a known common pathogenic variant mainly found in non-Jewish Caucasian (Landels_1992, Landels_1993, McDowell_1992, Akli_1993, Gort_2012, Utz_2015) with consistent genotype-phenotype and functional data. The frequency in control population therefore represents the carrier frequency. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases have classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. |

RCV000004126 | SCV001194215 | pathogenic | Tay-Sachs disease | 2019-11-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | NM_000520.4(HEXA):c.1073+1G>A(aka IVS9+1G>A) is classified as pathogenic in the context of hexosaminidase A deficiency. Please note that the c.1073+1G>A variant is associated with Tay-Sachs disease. Sources cited for classification include the following: PMID 8444467, 1387685, 22789865, 17015493, 8490625, 1837283 and 1301938. Classification of NM_000520.4(HEXA):c.1073+1G>A(aka IVS9+1G>A) is based on the following criteria: The variant is located at a canonical splice site, is expected to disrupt gene function and is reported in individuals with the relevant phenotype. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. |
