Genes affected
TXNRD2 (HGNC:18155): (thioredoxin reductase 2) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family, and is a member of the thioredoxin (Trx) system. Three thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) isozymes are found in mammals. TrxRs are selenocysteine-containing flavoenzymes, which reduce thioredoxins, as well as other substrates, and play a key role in redox homoeostasis. This gene encodes a mitochondrial form important for scavenging reactive oxygen species in mitochondria. It functions as a homodimer containing FAD, and selenocysteine (Sec) at the active site. Sec is encoded by UGA codon that normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, which is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon rather than as a stop signal. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms, including a few localized in the cytosol and some lacking the C-terminal Sec residue, have been found for this gene.

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 09, 2022Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function -
Primary dilated cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 02, 2022In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 958732). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TXNRD2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs774708598, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 520 of the TXNRD2 protein (p.Thr520Arg). -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 06, 2022The p.T520R variant (also known as c.1559C>G), located in coding exon 17 of the TXNRD2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1559. The threonine at codon 520 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
