Genes affected
IQSEC2 (HGNC:29059): (IQ motif and Sec7 domain ArfGEF 2) This gene encodes a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for the ARF family of small GTP-binding proteins. The encoded protein is a component of the postsynaptic density at excitatory synapses, and may play a critical role in cytoskeletal and synaptic organization through the activation of selected ARF substrates including ARF1 and ARF6. Mutations in this gene have been implicated in nonsyndromic X-linked cognitive disability. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Intellectual disability, X-linked 1 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 15, 2021In 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. 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 IQSEC2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 423803). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of X-linked intellectual disability (Invitae). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This sequence change replaces valine with methionine at codon 1487 of the IQSEC2 protein (p.Val1487Met). The valine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and methionine. -
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingClinical Genomics Laboratory, Stanford MedicineJan 25, 2021The p.Val1487Met variant in the IQSEC2 gene has not been previously reported in association with disease. This variant has been identified in 1/10,846 Finnish chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The IQSEC2 gene has fewer missense variants in the general population than expected. A low rate of missense variation may suggest that this gene is intolerant to missense variation. The p.Val1487Met variant is located in the PDZ binding motif of IQSEC2. While this domain is not currently an established critical domain, some evidence suggests it may be necessary for interaction with PDZ proteins, which are required for the function of the protein at the synapse (Mignot et al., 2019). These data were assessed using the ACMG/AMP variant interpretation guidelines. In summary, the significance of the p.Val1487Met variant is uncertain. Additional information is needed to resolve the significance of this variant. [ACMG evidence codes used: PM2; PP2] -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 23, 2017A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the IQSEC2 gene. The V1487M variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The V1487M variant is not observed in large population cohorts; however, limited data are available (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. However, the V1487M variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
