Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM2PP2PP3_Moderate
The NM_002397.5(MEF2C):c.1391G>C(p.Arg464Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
MEF2C (HGNC:6996): (myocyte enhancer factor 2C) This locus encodes a member of the MADS box transcription enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) family of proteins, which play a role in myogenesis. The encoded protein, MEF2 polypeptide C, has both trans-activating and DNA binding activities. This protein may play a role in maintaining the differentiated state of muscle cells. Mutations and deletions at this locus have been associated with severe cognitive disability, stereotypic movements, epilepsy, and cerebral malformation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the MEF2C gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 27 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 26 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.9523 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.8218 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to intellectual disability, autosomal dominant 20, complex neurodevelopmental disorder.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.841
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
