Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PS4PM1PS3_SupportingPP3PM2_SupportingPM6_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.400T>C variant in the MAP2K2 gene is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of tyrosine by histidine at amino acid 134 (p.Tyr134His). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.917, 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 128-138). Furthermore, a different pathogenic variant at this residue (Tyr134Cys) has been identified in several patients with RASopathies (PM5). This variant has been identified in at least 6 patients with a RASopathy, of which 2 were unconfirmed de novo cases (PS4, PM6_Strong; Partners LMM, Labcorp internal data, ClinVar: SCV000063166.5, SCV002210187.3; PMID:18042262, 18456719, 27763634). Western blot assay in Ba/F3 cells showed that the variant activated ERK signaling while the wildtype did not (PS3_Supporting, PMID:30867592). 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, PM6_Strong, PM1, PM5, PS3_Supprting, PM2_Supporting, PP3 (Specification Version 2.3, 12/3/2024) LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA119417/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]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 134 of the MAP2K2 protein (p.Tyr134His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome (PMID: 18042262, 18456719). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8274). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MAP2K2 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Tyr134 amino acid residue in MAP2K2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18039235, 18413255, 23885229). 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. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The MAP2K2 c.400T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr134His. This variant has been reported in individuals with cardio-facio-cutaneous (CFC) syndrome, Noonan syndrome, or a RASopathy (Nyström et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18456719; Schulz et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18042262; Terao et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20518782; Table S1, Bhoj et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27763634). This variant was reported in at least one of those patients in the de novo state (Nyström et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18456719). This variant was also reported de novo in an individual with neurodevelopmental disorder, seizure, other neurological anomaly, syndromic/malformative, immune/hematological diseases, cardiovascular disease (Supplemental Data, Case ID 452, Quaio et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33258288) and in an individual with Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) (Diamond et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30867592). Functional studies also showed that this variant alters protein function (Diamond et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30867592). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare, and is reported as pathogenic and likely pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/8274/). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
