A Japanese patient with hereditary spastic paraplegia with a rare KIF5A nonsense variant.
Spastic paraplegia (SPG)10 is an autosomal dominant SPG caused by kinesin family member 5A (KIF5A) gene variants. We describe a Japanese patient with SPG whose deceased mother and maternal uncle also exhibited SPG. Exome analysis identified a rare KIF5A nonsense variant (NM_004984.4:c.2590C>T (p.Arg864Ter)) in the patient, regarded as pathogenic. As KIF5A mRNA expression was significantly decreased compared with that of a healthy control, the variant was deemed causative of SPG.
