Genes affected

KMT2A (HGNC:7132): (lysine methyltransferase 2A) This gene encodes a transcriptional coactivator that plays an essential role in regulating gene expression during early development and hematopoiesis. The encoded protein contains multiple conserved functional domains. One of these domains, the SET domain, is responsible for its histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferase activity which mediates chromatin modifications associated with epigenetic transcriptional activation. This protein is processed by the enzyme Taspase 1 into two fragments, MLL-C and MLL-N. These fragments reassociate and further assemble into different multiprotein complexes that regulate the transcription of specific target genes, including many of the HOX genes. Multiple chromosomal translocations involving this gene are the cause of certain acute lymphoid leukemias and acute myeloid leukemias. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-118489816-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-118489816-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 392919.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

The KMT2A c.4504C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1502*). This variant was reported in individuals with Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome (Table S3, Sheppard et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33783954; Lin et al. 2023. PubMed: 37025457). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Nonsense variants in KMT2A are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
