Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -11 ACMG points: 2P and 13B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP6_Very_Strong BP7

The NM_001110792.2(MECP2):​c.414T>C​(p.Asn138Asn) variant causes a splice region, synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). The gene MECP2 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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]

ACMG classification

Specifications for MECP2 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -11 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.5).
• BP6: Variant X-154031450-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chrX-154031450-A-G is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 386476.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=3.41 with no splicing effect.
