Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000168257 SCV000218928 pathogenic Hereditary spastic paraplegia 7 2023-12-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys558*) in the SPG7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SPG7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21623769, 22964162). This variant is present in population databases (rs369227537, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 22964162, 24727571, 26756429). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188276). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Athena Diagnostics RCV000413970 SCV000844095 pathogenic not provided 2022-10-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is expected to result in the loss of a functional protein. The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002515187 SCV003731671 pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2022-08-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1672A>T (p.K558*) alteration, located in exon 13 (coding exon 13) of the SPG7 gene, consists of a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 1672. This changes the amino acid from a lysine (K) to a stop codon at amino acid position 558. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This alteration has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals with features of SPG7-related spastic paraplegia (Iqbal, 2017; Pfeffer, 2014; Rydning, 2016; Taylor, 2019; van Gassen, 2012). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute RCV000168257 SCV005399560 pathogenic Hereditary spastic paraplegia 7 2023-07-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Based 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 spastic paraplegia 7 (MIM#607259) and optical atrophy (MONDO:0003608). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. This gene is associated with autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 7 and autosomal dominant optical atrophy (PMIDs: 31854126, 32548275). (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 (37 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (DECIPHER). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported many times as pathogenic, and observed in compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals with spastic paraplegia. Some of these individuals also had ataxia (ClinVar, PMID: 22964162). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign

This variant has been reported to be causative for spastic paraplegia (van Gassen et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22964162; Bhattacharjee et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29057857). This variant is reported in 0.028% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in SPG7 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.

The IDDRC-CTSA National Brain Gene Registry (BGR) is a study funded by the U.S. National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and includes 13 Intellectual and Developmental Disability Research Center (IDDRC) institutions. The study is led by Principal Investigator Dr. Philip Payne from Washington University. The BGR is a data commons of gene variants paired with subject clinical information. This database helps scientists learn more about genetic changes and their impact on the brain and behavior. Participation in the Brain Gene Registry requires participation in GenomeConnect.
