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.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 11 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 24 uncertain in NM_000530.8
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 84 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.98749 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.4782 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease dominant intermediate D, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1B, autosomal dominant intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with neuropathic pain, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2J, neuropathy, congenital hypomyelinating, 2, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2I, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 3, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.09376076).

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with aspartic acid at codon 71 of the MPZ protein (p.Glu71Asp). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and aspartic acid. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a MPZ-related disease. 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 tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a novel homozygous missense change that is not predicted to affect protein function. There is no indication that it causes disease, but the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
