Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP4

The NM_001354604.2(MITF):​c.1182A>T​(p.Glu394Asp) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000157 in 1,461,788 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E394K) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
MITF (HGNC:7105): (melanocyte inducing transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. The encoded protein regulates melanocyte development and is responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

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

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 287 of the MITF protein (p.Glu287Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs137904015, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MITF-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2943489). 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. 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. -

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

The p.E287D variant (also known as c.861A>T), located in coding exon 9 of the MITF gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 861. The glutamic acid at codon 287 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
