Genes affected

TK2 (HGNC:11831): (thymidine kinase 2) This gene encodes a deoxyribonucleoside kinase that specifically phosphorylates thymidine, deoxycytidine, and deoxyuridine. The encoded enzyme localizes to the mitochondria and is required for mitochondrial DNA synthesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with a myopathic form of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms, some of which lack transit peptide, so are not localized to mitochondria. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

TK2 Arg183Gly (c.547C>G) is a missense variant that changes the amino acid at residue 183 from Arginine to Glycine. It is also described as R152G and R225G in the literature. This variant has been observed in multiple probands affected with mitochondrial disease in the compound heterozygous state, with a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant confirmed in trans in at least one proband (PMID:38544965;19125351;29602790;12655576). Experimental studies showed reduced activity, however, the significance of this finding remains unclear (19154348). This variant is not present at a significant frequency in gnomAD, and in silico models agree that this variant is possibly or probably damaging. In conclusion, we classify TK2 Arg183Gly (c.547C>G) as a likely pathogenic variant. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 183 of the TK2 protein (p.Arg183Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs137886900, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with TK2-related conditions (PMID: 12655576, 12682338, 29602790). This variant is also known as R152G. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38991). 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 expected to disrupt TK2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts the p.Arg183 amino acid residue in TK2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15907288, 18819985, 29602790). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
