Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001378183.1(PIEZO2):​c.8395C>G​(p.Arg2799Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 11/19 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R2799C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

PIEZO2 (HGNC:26270): (piezo type mechanosensitive ion channel component 2) The protein encoded by this gene contains more than thirty transmembrane domains and likely functions as part of mechanically-activated (MA) cation channels. These channels serve to connect mechanical forces to biological signals. The encoded protein quickly adapts MA currents in somatosensory neurons. Defects in this gene are a cause of type 5 distal arthrogryposis. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their full-length nature is not known.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr18-10671730-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 137630.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.959
• PP5: Variant 18-10671730-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-10671730-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 973945.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 973945). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with PIEZO2-related conditions (Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2686 of the PIEZO2 protein (p.Arg2686Gly). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg2686 amino acid residue in PIEZO2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24726473, 31680123, 32901917). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PIEZO2 protein function. -
