Genes affected

CYP21A2 (HGNC:2600): (cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2) This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and hydroxylates steroids at the 21 position. Its activity is required for the synthesis of steroid hormones including cortisol and aldosterone. Mutations in this gene cause congenital adrenal hyperplasia. A related pseudogene is located near this gene; gene conversion events involving the functional gene and the pseudogene are thought to account for many cases of steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (C>T) at position 92 of the coding sequence of the CYP21A2 gene that results in a proline to leucine amino acid change at residue 31 of the cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2 protein. This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar 12153) that has been observed in homozygous, hemizygous, and compound heterozygous individuals affected by non-classical, simple virilizing, or salt wasting forms of congenital adrel hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (PMID: 23142378, 23359698, 26804566, 31446012). This variant is present in 43 of 271488 alleles (0.0158%) in the gnomAD population dataset. Multiple bioinformatic tools predict that this proline to leucine amino acid change would be damaging, and the proline residue at this position is highly conserved across the vertebrate species examined. Studies examining the functiol consequence of this variant found that this variant significantly reduces CYP21A2's catalytic ability (PMID: 2072928, 28539365). Based upon the evidence, we consider this to be a pathogenic variant. ACMG Criteria: PP3, PS3, PS4 -

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 31 of the CYP21A2 protein (p.Pro31Leu). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases (gnomAD) is considered unreliable due to the presence of homologous sequence, such as pseudogenes or paralogs, in the genome. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with classic salt-wasting, simple virilizing, and non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (PMID: 2072928, 23142378, 23359698, 26804566, 31446012). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as P30L. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12153). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CYP21A2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CYP21A2 function (PMID: 2072928, 28539365). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Frequency data for this variant in the general population cannot be distinguished from that of the CYP21P pseudogene, and are therefore uninformative in assessment of variant pathogenicity (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen in trans with other recessive pathogenic variants in CYP21A2, suggesting this variant is also pathogenic. This variant has been reported to associate with non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). In some published literature, this variant is referred to as Pro30Leu or *8. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. Studies have shown this variant significantly reduces enzymatic activity (PMID: 20080860, 23927611, 24953648, 28539365). -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in a non-classic phenotype of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) (PMID: 2072928 (1991)). It has also been seen in many affected individuals with either a salt-wasting or simple virilizing phenotype as a result of being carried in combination with different pathogenic variants (PMIDs: 22629504 (2012), 26425475 (2015), and 27041116 (2016)). Functional studies have shown this variant significantly reduces enzymatic activity (PMIDs: 20080860 (2010), 23927611 (2014), 24953648 (2015), and 28539365 (2017)). The variant under the control of the CYP21A2 gene promoter has been reported to cause a less severe phenotype than under the control of the CYP21A pseudogene promoter (PMID: 15670187 (2005)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00059 (14/23690 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
