Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BS2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The highest population minor allele frequency of the p.Pro173Thr variant in MECP2 (NM_004992.4) in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.000002233 in European (non-Finnish) population (not sufficient to meet BS1 criteria). The p.Pro173Thr variant is observed in at least 1 unaffected individual (internal database - GeneDx) (BS2_Supporting). The p.Pro173Thr variant is not currently published and is not present in additional databases (internal and publicly available), therefore, no additional criteria are applicable at this time. In summary, the p.Pro173Thr variant in MECP2 is classified as a variant of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (BS2_Supporting). (MECP2 specification v3.0.0, curation approved on 8/30/2024) LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA415173958/MONDO:0010726/036

Genes affected
MECP2 (HGNC:6990): (methyl-CpG binding protein 2) DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 comprise a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, is capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA. MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. In contrast to other MBD family members, MECP2 is X-linked and subject to X inactivation. MECP2 is dispensible in stem cells, but is essential for embryonic development. MECP2 gene mutations are the cause of most cases of Rett syndrome, a progressive neurologic developmental disorder and one of the most common causes of cognitive disability in females. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]
