Genes affected
MAP2K2 (HGNC:6842): (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK2/ERK3. The activation of this kinase itself is dependent on the Ser/Thr phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinase kinases. Mutations in this gene cause cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC syndrome), a disease characterized by heart defects, cognitive disability, and distinctive facial features similar to those found in Noonan syndrome. The inhibition or degradation of this kinase is also found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax. A pseudogene, which is located on chromosome 7, has been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: MAP2K2 c.705+11G>C alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0011 in 193108 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.012 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 4800 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MAP2K2 causing Noonan Syndrome and Related Conditions phenotype (2.5e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.705+11G>C in individuals affected with Noonan Syndrome and Related Conditions and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

c.705+11G>C in Intron 06 of MEK2: This variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it is not located within the splice consensus sequence and has been identified in 1.0% (37/3692) of African American chromosomes from a bro ad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.ed u/EVS;). -
