Genes affected
MPZ (HGNC:7225): (myelin protein zero) This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMT1B) and other polyneuropathies, such as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) and congenital hypomyelinating neuropathy (CHN). A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R106H variant (also known as c.317G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the MPZ gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 317. The arginine at codon 106 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, 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 arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 106 of the MPZ protein (p.Arg106His). This variant is present in population databases (rs145039212, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 32376792). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411670). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MPZ protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg106 amino acid residue in MPZ. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22222859). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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.
