Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001184880.2(PCDH19):c.707C>T(p.Pro236Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P236R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

PCDH19 (HGNC:14270): (protocadherin 19) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the delta-2 protocadherin subclass of the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein is thought to be a calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein that is primarily expressed in the brain. Mutations in this gene on human chromosome X are associated with sporadic infantile epileptic encephalopathy and to a female-restricted form of epilepsy (EFMR; also known as PCDH19RE). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_001184880.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrX-100407891-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 408904.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.981
• PP5: Variant X-100407891-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-100407891-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 626145.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chrX-100407891-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Aug 17, 2023	This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 236 of the PCDH19 protein (p.Pro236Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 26993267). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 626145). 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 PCDH19 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Pro236 amino acid residue in PCDH19. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 31487502; Invitae). 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. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Center for Genomics, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago	Mar 30, 2021	PCDH19 NM_001184880.1 exon 1 p.Pro236Leu (c.707C>T): This variant has been reported in the literature as de novo in 1 individual with early infantile epileptic encephalopthy (Trump 2016 PMID:26993267). This variant is not present in large control databases. Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. Of note, an additional variant at this codon (p.Pro236Ser) has been reported as de novo and in association with disease, supporting that this region has signifiance. In summary, data on this variant is highly suspicious for disease, but requires further evidence for pathogenicity. Therefore, this variant classified as likely pathogenic. -
