Genes affected
MEF2A (HGNC:6993): (myocyte enhancer factor 2A) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA-binding transcription factor that activates many muscle-specific, growth factor-induced, and stress-induced genes. The encoded protein can act as a homodimer or as a heterodimer and is involved in several cellular processes, including muscle development, neuronal differentiation, cell growth control, and apoptosis. Defects in this gene could be a cause of autosomal dominant coronary artery disease 1 with myocardial infarction (ADCAD1). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MEF2A p.Cys41* variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in ClinVar, Cosmic or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs1226726746) and in control databases in 1 of 31402 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000032 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following population: European (non-Finnish) in 1 of 15430 chromosomes (freq: 0.000065); it was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), Other, and South Asian populations. The p.Cys41* variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 41 which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the MEF2A gene are not currently an established mechanism of disease, therefore the function of this variant is not known. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
