RCV000644901 | SCV000766619 | uncertain significance | Hereditary spastic paraplegia 4 | 2017-10-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SPAST-related disease. 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: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 478 of the SPAST protein (p.Asp478Asn). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. |
