MBTPS2

protein-coding

membrane bound transcription factor peptidase, site 2

Gene summary

This gene encodes a intramembrane zinc metalloprotease, which is essential in development. This protease functions in the signal protein activation involved in sterol control of transcription and the ER stress response. Mutations in this gene have been associated with ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia (IFAP syndrome); IFAP syndrome has been quantitatively linked to a reduction in cholesterol homeostasis and ER stress response.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Submitter: ClinGen

Variants in MBTPS2 have been observed in males with X-linked IFAP syndrome with or without BRESHECK syndrome. This disease was initially characterized by the triad of Ichthyosis Follicularis, Atrichia, and Photophobia (IFAP syndrome). Later, variants in this gene were also observed in individuals with additional features, including Brain anomalies, severe mental Retardation, Ectodermal dysplasia, Skeletal malformations, Hirschsprung disease, Ear/eye anomalies, Cleft palate/cryptorchidism, and Kidney dysplasia/hypoplasia (BRESHECK syndrome). Evidence suggests that there is no difference in the molecular mechanism underlying IFAP and BRESHECK syndromes and they are within the same phenotypic spectrum. Therefore, for the purposes of this curation, they have been lumped into one disease entity, IFAP syndrome with or without BRESHECK syndrome. Neurodevelopmental features are commonly found in individuals with IFAP syndrome, including developmental delay (32%), intellectual disability (39%), seizures (28%), and hypotonia (8%) (PMID: 21600032). Since 2009, 11 MBTPS2 variants in 17 male probands with X-linked IFAP/BRESHECK syndrome have been reported in 11 publications. In addition to the classic triad of IFAP, all of them had neurodevelopmental phenotypes and were hemizygous for missense variants. Complementation analysis and luciferase reporter assays in cell culture demonstrated impaired protein function for the variants studied, with residual activity (PMID: 19361614, 23316014). These studies indicate a partial loss-of-function disease mechanism, and suggest that complete null alleles may cause embryonic lethality in hemizygous males. In summary, there is definitive evidence to support this gene-disease association. This classification was approved by the ClinGen Intellectual Disability and Autism Gene Curation Expert Panel on 11/16/2020 (SOP Version 8).

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_015884.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Intramembrane proteolysis of sterol-regulatory element- binding proteins (SREBPs) within the first transmembrane segment thereby releasing the N-terminal segment with a portion of the transmembrane segment attached. Site-2 cleavage comes after site-1 cleavage which takes place in the lumenal loop.;
Disease
DISEASE: Olmsted syndrome, X-linked (OLMSX) [MIM:300918]: A rare congenital disorder characterized by bilateral mutilating palmoplantar keratoderma and periorificial keratotic plaques with severe itching at all lesions. Diffuse alopecia, constriction of digits, and onychodystrophy have also been reported. Infections and squamous cell carcinomas can arise on the keratotic areas. The digital constriction may progress to autoamputation of fingers and toes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22931912}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans X-linked (KFSDX) [MIM:308800]: A rare disorder affecting the skin and the eye. Affected men show thickening of the skin of the neck, ears, and extremities, especially the palms and soles, loss of eyebrows, eyelashes and beard, thickening of the eyelids with blepharitis and ectropion, and corneal degeneration. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20672378}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
