Genes affected

KMT2B (HGNC:15840): (lysine methyltransferase 2B) This gene encodes a protein which contains multiple domains including a CXXC zinc finger, three PHD zinc fingers, two FY-rich domains, and a SET (suppressor of variegation, enhancer of zeste, and trithorax) domain. The SET domain is a conserved C-terminal domain that characterizes proteins of the MLL (mixed-lineage leukemia) family. This gene is ubiquitously expressed in adult tissues. It is also amplified in solid tumor cell lines, and may be involved in human cancer. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported for this gene, however, the full length nature of the shorter transcript is not known.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 95 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 19-35718026-C-CGGCGGCG is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-35718026-C-CGGCGGCG is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1995855.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Sep 24, 2022	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser9Argfs*109) in the KMT2B gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in KMT2B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 27839873, 27992417). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the gnomAD database. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KMT2B-related conditions. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	May 22, 2023	Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33949708, 35872528) -
