NM_001204.7:c.-669G>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The BMPR2 c.-669G>A variant is a 5’UTR variant with contradictory evidence for a functional promoter effect (PMID:19223935 and PMID:30336198). Both reports included luciferase assays comparing transcriptional activity of cells expressing wild-type or variant promoter constructs. PMID:19223935 reported a negative effect on BMPR2 expression but the assay used a short 300 bp promoter fragment and no known pathogenic or benign variant controls. PMID:30336198 reported no effect on BMPR2 expression using longer 1520 bp promoter fragments and included nine different PAH associated variants. Based on the latter report, PS3 was not applied. PMID:26387786 reported three PAH probands with the c.-669G>A variant. However, the variant has also been identified in numerous individuals from control populations. In gnomAD v2.1.1 controls (11/2022), the Estonian population had an AF of 2.65% (105/3956 alleles, including 2 homozygotes) which is higher than the ClinGen Pulmonary Hypertension VCEP threshold of >1% for BA1, and therefore meets this stand-alone criterion (BA1). In summary, the variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for pulmonary arterial hypertension based on ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Pulmonary Hypertension VCEP: BA1 (VCEP specification version 1.1, 1/18/2024).

Genes affected
BMPR2 (HGNC:1078): (bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 2) This gene encodes a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. The ligands of this receptor are members of the TGF-beta superfamily. BMPs are involved in endochondral bone formation and embryogenesis. These proteins transduce their signals through the formation of heteromeric complexes of two different types of serine (threonine) kinase receptors: type I receptors of about 50-55 kD and type II receptors of about 70-80 kD. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary pulmonary hypertension, both familial and fenfluramine-associated, and with pulmonary venoocclusive disease. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

The BMPR2 c.-669G>A variant is a 5’UTR variant with contradictory evidence for a functional promoter effect (PMID: 19223935 and PMID: 30336198). Both reports included luciferase assays comparing transcriptional activity of cells expressing wild-type or variant promoter constructs. PMID: 19223935 reported a negative effect on BMPR2 expression but the assay used a short 300 bp promoter fragment and no known pathogenic or benign variant controls.

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
