Genes affected
MCPH1 (HGNC:6954): (microcephalin 1) This gene encodes a DNA damage response protein. The encoded protein may play a role in G2/M checkpoint arrest via maintenance of inhibitory phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 1 and premature chromosome condensation syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
ANGPT2 (HGNC:485): (angiopoietin 2) This gene belongs to the angiopoietin family of growth factors. The protein encoded by this gene is an antagonist of angiopoietin 1, and both angiopoietin 1 and angiopoietin 2 are ligands for the endothelial TEK receptor tyrosine kinase. Angiopoietin 2 is upregulated in multiple inflammatory diseases and is implicated in the direct control of inflammation-related signaling pathways. The encoded protein affects angiogenesis during embryogenesis and tumorigenesis, disrupts the vascular remodeling ability of angiopoietin 1, and may induce endothelial cell apoptosis. This gene serves a prognostic biomarker for acute respiratory distress syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp715*) in the MCPH1 gene. However, it is currently unclear if variants that occur in this region of the gene cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs201599657, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with MCPH1-related conditions (PMID: 34670123). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 285523). 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. -

Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly Pathogenic:1

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: MCPH1 c.2145G>A (p.Trp715X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 249568 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2145G>A in individuals affected with Primary Autosomal Recessive Microcephaly and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant pathogenic (n=4) and VUS (n=2) . Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

MCPH1-related disorder Uncertain:1

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The MCPH1 c.2145G>A variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Trp715*). This variant was reported in an individual with transposition of the great arteries (Table 1, Blue et al 2022. PubMed ID: 34670123). This variant is reported in 0.024% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-6357381-G-A). Protein-truncating variants in this gene have been reported as causative for autosomal recessive primary microcephaly type one; however, there are no reported causative protein-truncating variants 3’ of the c.2145G>A variant (Human Gene Mutation Database; http://www.hgmd.cf.ac.uk/). Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
