Genes affected
MPZ (HGNC:7225): (myelin protein zero) This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMT1B) and other polyneuropathies, such as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) and congenital hypomyelinating neuropathy (CHN). A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism.

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 26, 2019The p.W101* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.302G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the MPZ gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 302. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type I Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 13, 2019Loss-of-function variants in MPZ are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14711881). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MPZ-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp101*) in the MPZ gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
