Comment on list classification: Updated rating from Red to Amber to match expert review and literature evidence. Added to panel and rated Amber by Chris Buxton (Bristol NHS). 2 patients in PMID:25527264 with onset in late adolescence who presented with subacute spastic paraplegia.Created: 8 Jan 2019, 1:53 p.m.
Wolf (2015, 25527264) report 3 patients with variants in DARS. One patient had typical infantile presentation but 2 patients with onset in late adolescence presented with subacute spastic paraplegia. Patient 1 was compound heterozygous for c.599C>G; p.Ser200Cys and c.830C>T; p.Ser277Phe. Patient 2 was homozygous for c.1277T>C; p.Leu426Ser, and patient 3 compound heterozygous for c.839A>T; p.His280Leu and c.1099G>C; p.Asp367His.Created: 8 Jan 2019, 1:50 p.m.

HGMD: 15 missense, 1 ins associated with: Hypomyelination with brain stem and spinal cord involvement and leg spasticity:
An autosomal recessive leukoencephalopathy characterized by onset in the first year of life of severe spasticity, mainly affecting the lower limbs and resulting in an inability to achieve independent ambulation
Taft (2013, 23643384) identiofied compound-heterozygous and homozygous DARS missense variants in 7 unrelated families with severe lower limb spasticity associated with leukoencephalopathy
Phenotype expanded by Wolf (2015, 25527264) to later onset and subacute spastic paraplegia.
