Genes affected
MFN2 (HGNC:16877): (mitofusin 2) This gene encodes a mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion and contributes to the maintenance and operation of the mitochondrial network. This protein is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and it may play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A2, and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy VI, which are both disorders of the peripheral nervous system. Defects in this gene have also been associated with early-onset stroke. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 03, 2023This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 741 of the MFN2 protein (p.Leu741Val). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 33187793; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408322). 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 expected to disrupt MFN2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Leu741 amino acid residue in MFN2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 29341354, 31127728). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
