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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 14, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (HGMD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26310628, 26135405, 26481167, 25429913, 19691535, 19293842, 7527371, 19259128, 11545686, 10965800, 11437164, 9633821, 9187667, 11835375, 12497641, 10093067, 7550231, 18347322, 26406915, 18422810, 29687021, 32376792, 33825325, 12707985, 9883862, 20461396) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsDec 01, 2022This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with clinical features associated with autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and segregates with disease in multiple families. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. In some published literature, this variant is referred to as p.Ser49Leu. The variant is located in a region that is considered important for protein function and/or structure. -

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type I Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 14, 2023This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 78 of the MPZ protein (p.Ser78Leu). 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 type I (PMID: 7527371, 9633821, 10965800, 18347322). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14188). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This variant disrupts the p.Ser78 amino acid residue in MPZ. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7527371, 9633821, 12707985, 18347322; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
