Is ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C) pathogenic?

ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C) is classified Uncertain significance in ATL1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-02-21). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.9992); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia 3A.

What condition is associated with ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C)?

ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C) is associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia 3A (ClinVar).

How common is ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C) in the general population?

ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia type 3 inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about ATL1 p.Asp508Ala (c.1523A>C)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.9992) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean damaging — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.
