Variant summary

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

The NM_000530.8(MPZ):c.103G>T(p.Asp35Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 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. D35E) 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.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 13 uncertain in NM_000530.8
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-161307389-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 462790.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.888
PP5
Variant 1-161307389-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-161307389-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 14183.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-161307389-C-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 06, 2021Reported previously in a Japanese CMT registry; however, no further information is available (Hattori et al., 2003); Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (Stenson et al., 2014); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32376792, 33179255, 12477701, 26406915, 10406984) -

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type I Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 22, 2023This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 35 of the MPZ protein (p.Asp35Tyr). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 10406984, 32376792). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MPZ function (PMID: 26406915). 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 not expected to disrupt MPZ protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14183). This variant is also known as Asp6Tyr. -
