Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PS3_Supporting PM6 PM2_Supporting PM1 PS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.372G>C (p.Leu124Phe) variant in MECP2 (NM_004992.3) occurs in the de novo state (biological parentage unconfirmed) in an individual with Rett syndrome (PMID 10991688) (PM6). The c.372G>C (p.Leu124Phe) variant occurs in the well-characterized methyl-DNA binding functional domain of the MECP2 gene (PM1). The c.372G>C (p.Leu124Phe) variant in MECP2 is absent from gnomAD (PM2_supporting). MECP2 heterochromatin binding assay and in vitro transcriptional repression assay have shown that this variant impacts protein function (PMID 12843318) (PS3_supporting). The c.372G>T variant in the MECP2 gene results in a p.Leu124Phe change that is a previously established pathogenic variant (internal database - Invitae) (PS1). In summary, the c.372G>C (p.Leu124Phe) variant in MECP2 is classified as Pathogenic for Rett syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PS1, PM1, PM6, PM2_supporting, PS3_supporting).

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]
