Genes affected

MORC2 (HGNC:23573): (MORC family CW-type zinc finger 2) This gene encodes a member of the Microrchidia (MORC) protein superfamily. The encoded protein is known to regulate the condensation of heterochromatin in response to DNA damage and play a role in repressing transcription. The protein has been found to regulate the activity of ATP citrate lyase via specific interaction with this enzyme in the cytosol of lipogenic breast cancer cells. The protein also plays a role in lipogenesis and adipocyte differentiation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points.

PP2

Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), MORC2. . Gene score misZ 3.2251 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.4393 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with Leigh syndrome, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2Z, developmental delay, impaired growth, dysmorphic facies, and axonal neuropathy.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.037131816).

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 47 AD gene.

Jan 25, 2024

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 982 of the MORC2 protein (p.Thr982Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs771410096, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MORC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 475590). 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 MORC2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
