Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000530.8(MPZ):c.409G>A(p.Gly137Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,888 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G137A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
MPZ (HGNC:7225): (myelin protein zero) This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMT1B) and other polyneuropathies, such as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) and congenital hypomyelinating neuropathy (CHN). A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type I Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 21, 2021This sequence change replaces glycine with serine at codon 137 of the MPZ protein (p.Gly137Ser). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glycine and serine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 8664899, 11545686, 26310628, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14173). Experimental studies have shown that this variant does not substantially affect MPZ protein function (PMID: 29687021). This variant disrupts the p.Gly137 amino acid residue in MPZ. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MPZ-related conditions (PMID: 21326314, 24053775), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. -
