Genes affected
MOCS2 (HGNC:7193): (molybdenum cofactor synthesis 2) Eukaryotic molybdoenzymes use a unique molybdenum cofactor (MoCo) consisting of a pterin, termed molybdopterin, and the catalytically active metal molybdenum. MoCo is synthesized from precursor Z by the heterodimeric enzyme molybdopterin synthase. The large and small subunits of molybdopterin synthase are both encoded from this gene by overlapping open reading frames. The proteins were initially thought to be encoded from a bicistronic transcript. They are now thought to be encoded from monocistronic transcripts. Alternatively spliced transcripts have been found for this locus that encode the large and small subunits. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 11, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln6*) in the MOCS2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MOCS2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21031595). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908607, gnomAD 0.04%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with molybdenum cofactor deficiency (PMID: 11746050). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6113). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
