Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP2PP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.281C>T (p.Ser94Leu) variant in MAP2K2 has been identified in 2 independent occurrences in patients with a RASopathy; however, in both cases it was inherited from an apparently unaffected parent (BS2 not met; GeneDx, LMM internal data; ClinVar SCV000204231.4; SCV000207977.8). The p.Ser94Leu variant was present in 0.012% (3/24906) of African alleles in gnomAD (PM2 not met, gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The variant is located in the MAP2K2 gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic missense variants are common (PP2; PMID:29493581). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact protein function (PP3). In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ser94Leu variant is uncertain.

Genes affected
MAP2K2 (HGNC:6842): (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK2/ERK3. The activation of this kinase itself is dependent on the Ser/Thr phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinase kinases. Mutations in this gene cause cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC syndrome), a disease characterized by heart defects, cognitive disability, and distinctive facial features similar to those found in Noonan syndrome. The inhibition or degradation of this kinase is also found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax. A pseudogene, which is located on chromosome 7, has been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

RASopathy Uncertain:2

ClinGen RASopathy Variant Curation Expert Panel
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The c.281C>T (p.Ser94Leu) variant in MAP2K2 has been identified in 2 independent occurrences in patients with a RASopathy (PS4 not met; GeneDx, LMM internal data; GTR ID; 26957, 21766; SCV000204231.4; SCV000207977.8). The variant is located in the MAP2K2 gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic missense variants are common (PP2; PMID: 29493581). In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ser94Leu variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PP2. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 94 of the MAP2K2 protein (p.Ser94Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs202220799, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MAP2K2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40786). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MAP2K2 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

p.Ser94Leu in exon 2 of MAP2K2: This variant is not expected to have clinical s ignificance because it has been identified in two unaffected Caucasian parents. It has also been identified in 3/10138 of African chromosomes and 2/11476 Latino chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitu te.org; dbSNP rs202220799). -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: MAP2K2 c.281C>T (p.Ser94Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Protein kinase domain (IPR000719) 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 3.5e-05 in 282136 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 14 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MAP2K2 causing Noonan Syndrome And Related Conditions phenotype (2.5e-06). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.281C>T in individuals affected with Noonan Syndrome And Related Conditions and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40786). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance by the ClinGen RASopathy Variant Curation Expert Panel (SCV000616542.3; Landrum et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (Stenson et al., 2014) -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.S94L variant (also known as c.281C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the MAP2K2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 281. The serine at codon 94 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
