The BMPR2 c.1487G>A; p.Cys496Tyr variant (rs1085307362) is reported in the literature in an individual with a personal and family history of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) (Machado 2006). Functional data indicate that this variant, like other cysteine substitution variants in the kinase domain of BMPR2, results in a disruption of trafficking to the plasma membrane, with the majority of protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (John 2015). The p.Cys496Tyr variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The cysteine at codon 496 is highly conserved, it occurs in the functionally important kinase domain of BMPR2, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Additionally, another amino acid substitution at this codon (p.Cys496Arg) has been reported in individuals with PAH (Machado 2015, Yang 2018). Based on available information, the p.Cys496Tyr variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: John et al.

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 496 of the BMPR2 protein (p.Cys496Tyr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PMID: 16429395; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 425954). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (Invitae) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BMPR2 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BMPR2 function (PMID: 25688877). This variant disrupts the p.Cys496 amino acid residue in BMPR2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (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. -
