Genes affected
LMNB2 (HGNC:6638): (lamin B2) This gene encodes a B type nuclear lamin. The nuclear lamina consists of a two-dimensional matrix of proteins located next to the inner nuclear membrane. The lamin family of proteins make up the matrix and are highly conserved in evolution. During mitosis, the lamina matrix is reversibly disassembled as the lamin proteins are phosphorylated. Lamin proteins are thought to be involved in nuclear stability, chromatin structure and gene expression. Vertebrate lamins consist of two types, A and B. Mutations in this gene are associated with acquired partial lipodystrophy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
MIR7108 (HGNC:49998): (microRNA 7108) microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:research

The heterozygous p.Arg235Gln variant in LMNB2 has been identified in 2 individuals with acquired partial lipodystrophy (PMID: 16826530), but has also been identified in >1% of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes and 27 homozygotes by ExAC (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Acquired partial lipodistrophy is not known to be a Mendelian genetic disease. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign for acquired partial lipodystrophy. -

This variant has been reported in the literature in at least 2 individuals with acquired partial lipodystrophy as well as 1 individual with familial partial lipodystrophy (Hegele 2006 PMID:16826530, Akinci 2017 PMID:28641778). This variant is present in the Genome Aggregation Database (Highest reported MAF 1.5% (160/10626) including 3 homozygotes (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-2435152-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as Likely Benign or Benign (Variation ID:14474). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant suggests that this variant does not cause disease but requires further evidence. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
