Genes affected
PLEKHG2 (HGNC:29515): (pleckstrin homology and RhoGEF domain containing G2) The protein encoded by this gene is a RhoGTPase that can activate CDC42 by promoting exchange of GDP for GTP on CDC42. The encoded protein is activated by binding to the beta and gamma subunits of heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein. Defects in this gene have been associated with leukodystrophy and acquired microcephaly with or without dystonia. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]

The PLEKHG2 c.610C>T missense variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic (PP1_moderate, PS3_moderate, PS4_moderate) The PLEKHG2 c.610C>T missense variant is a single nucleotide change in exon 7 of the PLEKHG2 gene, which is predicted to change the amino acid arginine at position 204 in the protein to tryptophan. This variant has been reported in a homozygous state in five patients with profound mental retardation, dystonia, postnatal microcephaly, and common brain MRI findings, from two unrelated consanguinous families (PS4_moderate). This variant cosegregated with disease and heterozyous carriers of this variant were unaffected (PMID:26573021) (PP1_moderate). Functional studies demonstrate decreased basal and stimulated RhoGEF activity of the R204 mutant compared with wildtype in luciferase assays, suggesting the R204 variant impairs the ability of the PLEKHG2 catalytic domain to form an active conformation (PMID:26573021) (PS3_moderate). This variant has been reported in dbSNP (rs20101843) and has been reported in population databases (gnomAD = 0.035%, 96 of 272616 sequenced alleles, no homozygotes). This variant has been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic for Leukodystrophy and aquired microcephaly with or without dystonia (Variation ID: VCV000522394.1). It has also been reported as damaging in HGMD for mental retardation, dystonia and postnatal microcephaly (CM1617668). Computational predictions are equivocal. -

Variant summary: PLEKHG2 c.610C>T (p.Arg204Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Dbl homology (DH) domain (IPR000219) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00036 in 241264 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.610C>T has been reported in the literature in two unrelated consanguineous families (in homozygous state) affected with Microcephaly-dystonia (example: Edvardson_2016). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function suggests this variant can impair normal protein function (example: Edvardson_2016). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26573021). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 204 of the PLEKHG2 protein (p.Arg204Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs201201843, gnomAD 0.1%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with acquired microcephaly with or without dystonia (PMID: 26573021). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522394). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PLEKHG2 function (PMID: 26573021). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Published functional studies suggest R204W impairs catalytic activity and causes defects in dendritic spine morphology formation (Edvardson et al., 2016; Nishikawa et al., 2022); Reported in multiple individuals from two unrelated families with severe developmental delay, postnatal microcephaly, hypotonia, leukodystrophy, variable presence of dystonia, and seizures (Edvardson et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Variants in candidate genes are classified as variants of uncertain significance in accordance with ACMG guidelines (Richards et al., 2015); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34426522, 35203342, 26573021) -

The PLEKHG2 c.610C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg204Trp. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in multiple individuals among two families with profound intellectual disability, dystonia, postnatal microcephaly, and distinct neuroimaging profiles (Edvardson et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26573021). This variant is reported in 0.15% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-39907506-C-T). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
