Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_002462.5(MX1):c.297C>A(p.Ser99Arg) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000211 in 1,613,678 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
MX1 (HGNC:7532): (MX dynamin like GTPase 1) This gene encodes a guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-metabolizing protein that participates in the cellular antiviral response. The encoded protein is induced by type I and type II interferons and antagonizes the replication process of several different RNA and DNA viruses. There is a related gene located adjacent to this gene on chromosome 21, and there are multiple pseudogenes located in a cluster on chromosome 4. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.297C>A (p.S99R) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 2) of the MX1 gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 297, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 99 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
