Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PS4_ModeratePM5PM1PS3_SupportingPM6PP3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.170T>G variant in the MAP2K2 gene is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of phenylalanine by cysteine at amino acid 57 (p.Phe57Cys). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.959, predicting a damaging impact on protein function (PP3). This variant is in a location that has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel to be a critical functional domain of MAP2K2 (PM1, AA 47-65). Furthermore, other pathogenic missense variants has been previously identified at this codon of MAP2K2 (Phe57Val, Phe57Ile, Phe57Leu) and in nearby residues in association with CFC syndrome, which may indicate that this residue is critical to the function of the protein (PM5). This variant has been identified in at least 4 patients with RASopathy, of which 1 was an unconfirmed de novo occurrence (PS4_Moderate, PM6; GenomeConnect, ClinVar: SCV002047662.1; PMID:16439621, 18039235, 21062266). ERK phosphorylation assays showed that this variant led to increased phosphorylation compared to wild-type (PS3_Supporting; PMID:16439621, 17981815). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant RASopathies based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen RASopathy Variant Curation Expert Panel: PS4_Moderate, PM1, PM5, PM6, PS3_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP3 (Specification Version 2.3, 12/3/2024) LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA279958/MONDO:0021060/048

Genes affected
MAP2K2 (HGNC:6842): (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK2/ERK3. The activation of this kinase itself is dependent on the Ser/Thr phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinase kinases. Mutations in this gene cause cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC syndrome), a disease characterized by heart defects, cognitive disability, and distinctive facial features similar to those found in Noonan syndrome. The inhibition or degradation of this kinase is also found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax. A pseudogene, which is located on chromosome 7, has been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
