Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate
The NM_014874.4(MFN2):c.776G>T(p.Arg259Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,884 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R259H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces arginine with leucine at codon 259 of the MFN2 protein (p.Arg259Leu). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and leucine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg259 amino acid residue in MFN2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MFN2-related conditions (PMID: 25957633, 24450158, 22492563, 24863639, 24627108), suggesting that it is a clinically significant residue. As a result, variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be causative of disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has been observed to be de novo in an individual affected with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 19350291). -
