Description

In 4 affected members of a multigenerational family (family 2) with autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia-79A with ataxia (SPG79A; 620221), Park et al. (2022) identified a heterozygous 16-bp deletion (c.349_364del, NM_004181.4) in the UCHL1 gene, resulting in a frameshift and premature termination (Phe117ArgfsTer33). The mutation, which was found by diagnostic exome and genome sequencing, was not present in the gnomAD database. Functional studies of the variant were not performed, but mass spectrometry analysis of patient fibroblasts showed a significant decrease in UCHL1 protein levels, suggesting that haploinsufficiency for this gene is the pathogenetic mechanism for this phenotype. One of the patients in this family had an additional diagnosis of ALS (105400) and carried a heterozygous pathogenic missense mutation (D91A) in the SOD1 gene (147450).
