Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2BP4_Strong

The NM_001979.6(EPHX2):c.746G>A(p.Arg249His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000151 in 1,613,930 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. R249C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
EPHX2 (HGNC:3402): (epoxide hydrolase 2) This gene encodes a member of the epoxide hydrolase family. The protein, found in both the cytosol and peroxisomes, binds to specific epoxides and converts them to the corresponding dihydrodiols. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 03, 2022The c.746G>A (p.R249H) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 7) of the EPHX2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 746, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 249 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
