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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 18, 2023This sequence change disrupts the translational stop signal of the MOCS2B mRNA. It is expected to extend the length of the MOCS2B protein by 18 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs121908609, gnomAD 0.05%). This protein extension has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of molybdenum cofactor deficiency (PMID: 16021469; Invitae). This variant is also known as X189Y. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6115). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this protein extension affects MOCS2B function (PMID: 16021469). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
