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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.4093642).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.000233 (323/1384940) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000616 (22/35700). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000416. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 152 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 30.

The c.5863T>A (p.L1955M) alteration is located in exon 38 (coding exon 38) of the PIEZO2 gene. This alteration results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 5863, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 1955 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1955 of the PIEZO2 protein (p.Leu1955Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs112982077, gnomAD 0.04%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PIEZO2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436312). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on PIEZO2 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. -
