Genes affected
PRRT2 (HGNC:30500): (proline rich transmembrane protein 2) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein containing a proline-rich domain in its N-terminal half. Studies in mice suggest that it is predominantly expressed in brain and spinal cord in embryonic and postnatal stages. Mutations in this gene are associated with episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia-1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]

Variant summary: PRRT2 c.796C>T (p.Arg266Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251012 control chromosomes. c.796C>T has been observed in individual(s) affected with Episodic Kinesigenic Dyskinesia 1 (Wang_2011, internal data), epilepsy and/or neurodevelopmental disorders (Lindy_2018), and self-limited infantile epilepsy (Tian_2023). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Zhao_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31589614, 29655203, 32906206, 22120146, 31124310, 37880614). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31177). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

Episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia Uncertain:1

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

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 266 of the PRRT2 protein (p.Arg266Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs387907128, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PMID: 22120146; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31177). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on PRRT2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect PRRT2 function (PMID: 31124310, 37271286). This variant disrupts the p.Arg266 amino acid residue in PRRT2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with PRRT2-related conditions (PMID: 22120146, 26446061; Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. -
