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
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 24, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 98 of the MPZ protein (p.Arg98Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (PMID: 8644725, 8797476, 9168174, 20461396, 21840889). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14175). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MPZ protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MPZ function (PMID: 20461396, 22689911). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
