Genes affected

CASP2 (HGNC:1503): (caspase 2) This gene encodes a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Caspases mediate cellular apoptosis through the proteolytic cleavage of specific protein substrates. The encoded protein may function in stress-induced cell death pathways, cell cycle maintenance, and the suppression of tumorigenesis. Increased expression of this gene may play a role in neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease and temporal lobe epilepsy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

CASP2 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• intellectual developmental disorder, autosomal recessive 80, with variant lissencephaly

  Inheritance: AR Classification: MODERATE, LIMITED Submitted by: G2P, Ambry Genetics

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.6).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-3.02 with no splicing effect.
