Genes affected

MEGF8 (HGNC:3233): (multiple EGF like domains 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Ambry Genetics

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.278C>G (p.S93C) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the MEGF8 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 278, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 93 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 93 of the MEGF8 protein (p.Ser93Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs200910137, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MEGF8-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 938580). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
