Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
- Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (All Types)
One of 66 genes linked to it
Umbrella term covering all hereditary spastic paraplegias, including SPG4 (SPAST), the most common dominant form, and SPG5A, SPG6, SPG10, SPG18, SPG30 and SPG31.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 3 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
How ARL6IP1 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 2.3 kb of the gene's 9.9 kb; 612 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads ARL6IP1
5
positions in ARL6IP1 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 9.9 kb of ARL6IP1, introns included, not only the 2.3 kb of exons.
