Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points: 5P and 12B. PM1PM2PP2BP4_StrongBP6_Very_Strong

The NM_014874.4(MFN2):c.1179G>A(p.Met393Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000295 in 1,614,260 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Uncertain significancein ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M393V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points.

PM1
In a helix (size 66) in uniprot entity MFN2_HUMAN there are 51 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (98%) in NM_014874.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, MFN2
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0060663223).
BP6
Variant 1-12004010-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-12004010-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 194091.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
