    Novel GDAP2 pathogenic variants cause autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia-27 (SCAR27) in a Chinese family
    2
    1. ClingenBaseline 21 Oct 2026
      we report a Chinese male patient carrying novel biallelic GDAP2 variants, c.757C>T (p.Arg253*) and c.1323delC (p.Thr442fs*7), who was diagnosed with SCAR27.

      MonDO: MONDO:0032706

      Case: Chinese male. Onset at age 30 years with mild dysarthria with progressive worsening.

      DiseaseAssertion: Cerebellar ataxia

      FamilyInfo: No history of neurological disease and consanguinity was documented in the family. Delivery and perinatal events were unremarkable.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0001260, HP:0002141, HP:0002061, HP:0009046 (Dysarthria, Gait imbalance, Lower limb spasticity, Difficulty running

      CaseHPOFreeText: Difficulty writing, Increase in bilateral knee reflexes

      CaseNOTHPOs: HP:0003487 (Babinski sign)

      CasePreviousTesting: His clinical examination displayed cerebellar ataxia with abnormal finger-to-nose and heel-knee-shin tests. Bilateral knee reflexes were symmetrical increased (+++) and Babinski signs were negative. Cranial nerves, muscle strength and sensory examinations were normal. Mild cognitive decline with a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) of 24/30, a Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score of 17.5/40 and International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS) score of 46/100. Brain MRI revealed cerebellar atrophy (Fig. 1A).

      GenotypingMethod: WES with Sanger confirmation and co-segregation analysis. Genetic testing for spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 12, 17 and dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) were negative.

      VariantEvidence: Wildtype and mutant plasmids were transfected into SH-SY5Y cells. The mRNA level of frameshift variant p.Thr442fs7 was almost same with the level of wild-type, whereas nonsense variant p.Arg253 was even increased, thus they might escape NMD. As a result, p.Gln316 and p.Ser436fs36 mutant GDAP2 proteins were barely detectable, p.Thr442fs7, p.His400fs15 and p.Arg253 generated truncated proteins. Western blot analysis indicated that the GDAP2-Arg253 and GDAP2-Thr442fs*7 were C-terminal deletion mutants.
