Genes affected
EGR2 (HGNC:3239): (early growth response 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor with three tandem C2H2-type zinc fingers. Defects in this gene are associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1D (CMT1D), Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4E (CMT4E), and with Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS). Multiple transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Published functional studies demonstrate a reduced DNA binding affinity, altered DNA binding specificity and decreased transcriptional activity (Sevilla et al., 2015; Barrera et al., 2016; Warner et al., 1999); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 10371530, 21840889, 15947997, 27013732, 26204789, 27159987, 16775366, 10369870) -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 359 of the EGR2 protein (p.Arg359Trp). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg359 amino acid residue in EGR2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16198564). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects EGR2 function (PMID: 10369870, 17717711). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16752). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) or Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (PMID: 10371530, 11523566, 15947997, 27159987). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
