Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4_Moderate BS2

The NM_024757.5(EHMT1):​c.526C>G​(p.Pro176Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000687 in 1,455,402 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 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. P176S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

EHMT1 (HGNC:24650): (euchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates the lysine-9 position of histone H3. This action marks the genomic region packaged with these methylated histones for transcriptional repression. This protein may be involved in the silencing of MYC- and E2F-responsive genes and therefore could play a role in the G0/G1 cell cycle transition. Defects in this gene are a cause of chromosome 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome (9q-syndrome, also known as Kleefstra syndrome). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 176 of the EHMT1 protein (p.Pro176Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EHMT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 570292). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
