Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP3 PM6_Supporting PS4_Moderate PS3_Supporting PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The m.12315G>A variant in MT-TL2 has been reported in five affected and unrelated individuals from five families (PMIDs: one subject is reported in three different publications – 8923013, 9361028, 10332036; other subjects are reported in 12398839, 19718780, 18977334, 21819490; PS4_moderate). Age of onset ranged from childhood to adulthood (30s) and features included chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO), myopathy, pigmentary retinopathy, and sensorineural hearing loss. Muscle biopsies showed ragged red fibers, COX-deficiency, and reduced respiratory chain enzyme activities. Heteroplasmy levels ranged from 62-94% in muscle, from undetectable to 17% in blood, and were absent when assessed in other tissues. This variant occurred de novo in one individual (variant absent in blood, urine, and hair from healthy mother; PM6_supporting, PMID:12398839).There were no similarly affected family members and no reports of transmission within a family to consider for evidence of segregation. This variant is absent in the GenBank dataset, Helix dataset, and gnomAD v3.1.2 (PM2_supporting). Single fiber testing was performed in two separate instances. This was first reported in 1996 (PMID:8923013) and showed higher levels of the variant in fibers with no detectable COX activity (95 ± 1%, range 93–98%) than in apparently normal fibers (54 ± 33%, range 11 to 90%). Single fiber studies were again performed on a different subject in 2002 (PMID:12398839) and revealed higher levels of the variant in COX-negative fibers (N=7, 75.34 ± 5.19% heteroplasmy, range 67.01–81.86%) than in COX-positive fibers (N=6, 32.20 ± 9.05% heteroplasmy, range 16.29–34.93%; PS3_supporting). The computational predictor MitoTIP suggests this variant is pathogenic (82.2 percentile) and HmtVAR predicts it to be pathogenic score of 0.85 (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for primary mitochondrial disease inherited in a mitochondrial manner. This classification was approved by the NICHD/NINDS U24 ClinGen Mitochondrial Disease Variant Curation Expert Panel on November 30, 2022. Mitochondrial DNA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied (PMID:32906214): PS4_moderate, PM6_supporting, PM2_supporting, PS3_supporting, PP3.
