Genes affected
SYNE2 (HGNC:17084): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear outer membrane protein that binds cytoplasmic F-actin. This binding tethers the nucleus to the cytoskeleton and aids in the maintenance of the structural integrity of the nucleus. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.6764A>G (p.Q2255R) alteration is located in exon 44 (coding exon 43) of the SYNE2 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 6764, causing the glutamine (Q) at amino acid position 2255 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Nov 19, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2255 of the SYNE2 protein (p.Gln2255Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs750058499, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 567016). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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.
