Genes affected
CPT2 (HGNC:2330): (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein which is transported to the mitochondrial inner membrane. Together with carnitine palmitoyltransferase I, the encoded protein oxidizes long-chain fatty acids in the mitochondria. Defects in this gene are associated with mitochondrial long-chain fatty-acid (LCFA) oxidation disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency Pathogenic:2Uncertain:1
Jan 27, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 479 of the CPT2 protein (p.Tyr479Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs749895856, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency (PMID: 12707442, 15642848). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 523331). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CPT2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CPT2 function (PMID: 34063237). This variant disrupts the p.Tyr479 amino acid residue in CPT2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15642848, 18925671). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: CPT2 c.1436A>T (p.Tyr479Phe) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Choline/carnitine acyltransferase domain of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250996 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CPT2 causing Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase II Deficiency (4e-05 vs 0.0016), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1436A>T has been observed in individual(s) affected with Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase II Deficiency (Deschauer_2005, Boemer_2024). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CPT2 function (Meinhardt_2021). A different variant at the same codon has been reported as likely pathogenic with clinical and functional evidence (c.1436A>T, p.Tyr479Phe), suggesting this codon is critical for protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10607472, 24398345, 24602495, 34063237, 11257506, 10090476, 12673791, 12707442, 15642848, 39875687). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 523331). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
