Genes affected

MORC2 (HGNC:23573): (MORC family CW-type zinc finger 2) This gene encodes a member of the Microrchidia (MORC) protein superfamily. The encoded protein is known to regulate the condensation of heterochromatin in response to DNA damage and play a role in repressing transcription. The protein has been found to regulate the activity of ATP citrate lyase via specific interaction with this enzyme in the cytosol of lipogenic breast cancer cells. The protein also plays a role in lipogenesis and adipocyte differentiation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

MORC2-AS1 (HGNC:26662): (MORC2 antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
• BP6: Variant 22-30928000-G-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr22-30928000-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 2861762.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
