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.7617G>T (p.L2539F) alteration is located in exon 47 (coding exon 46) of the SYNE2 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 7617, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 2539 to be replaced by a phenylalanine (F). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2539 of the SYNE2 protein (p.Leu2539Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs200359168, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 1406098). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The phenylalanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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.
