Genes affected

CENPN (HGNC:30873): (centromere protein N) The protein encoded by this gene forms part of the nucleosome-associated complex and is important for kinetochore assembly. It is bound to kinetochores during S phase and G2 and recruits other proteins to the centromere. Pseudogenes of this gene are located on chromosome 2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

CMC2 (HGNC:24447): (C-X9-C motif containing 2) Located in mitochondrion. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.019159228).

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.100A>G (p.N34D) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the CENPN gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 100, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 34 to be replaced by an aspartic acid (D). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
