Genetic Variant PSEN2:p.Ala252Ala (chr1-226889018-G-A) – ACMG Classification: Benign (-11 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -11 ACMG points: 0P and 11B. BP4_ModerateBP7BS1BS2

The NM_000447.3(PSEN2):c.756G>A(p.Ala252Ala) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000167 in 1,613,946 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A252A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

PSEN2 (HGNC:9509): (presenilin 2) Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients with an inherited form of the disease carry mutations in the presenilin proteins (PSEN1 or PSEN2) or the amyloid precursor protein (APP). These disease-linked mutations result in increased production of the longer form of amyloid-beta (main component of amyloid deposits found in AD brains). Presenilins are postulated to regulate APP processing through their effects on gamma-secretase, an enzyme that cleaves APP. Also, it is thought that the presenilins are involved in the cleavage of the Notch receptor such that, they either directly regulate gamma-secretase activity, or themselves act are protease enzymes. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms of PSEN2 have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

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

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.39).

BP7

Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.122 with no splicing effect.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000157 (23/1461820) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.0000252 (1/39698). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000121. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 12 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 23 AD gene.
