Genes affected
MFSD2A (HGNC:25897): (MFSD2 lysolipid transporter A, lysophospholipid) The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane protein and sodium-dependent lysophosphatidylcholine transporter. The encoded protein is involved in the establishment of the blood-brain barrier and is required for brain growth and function. Defects in this gene are a cause of a progressive microcephaly syndrome.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.039736688).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000138 (21/152146) while in subpopulation NFE AF= 0.000235 (16/68020). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000147. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 10 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 23, 2023The c.77G>T (p.R26L) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the MFSD2A gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 77, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 26 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 03, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 26 of the MFSD2A protein (p.Arg26Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs201082115, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MFSD2A-related conditions. 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 tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
