Genes affected

TK2 (HGNC:11831): (thymidine kinase 2) This gene encodes a deoxyribonucleoside kinase that specifically phosphorylates thymidine, deoxycytidine, and deoxyuridine. The encoded enzyme localizes to the mitochondria and is required for mitochondrial DNA synthesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with a myopathic form of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms, some of which lack transit peptide, so are not localized to mitochondria. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 58 of the TK2 protein (p.Asn58Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs138439950, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (PMID: 18508266, 29735374). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as p.N100S. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38978). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TK2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

TK2 Asn58Ser (c.173A>G) is a missense variant that changes the amino acid at residue 58 from Asparagine to Serine. It is also described as N100S in the literature. This variant has been observed in multiple probands affected with mitochondrial disease in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous state (PMID:29735374;33087887;18508266) and was found to segregate with disease in multiple affected families (PMID:29735374;33087887). Functional studies have been reported; however, the significance of the findings remain unclear (PMID:28207748). This variant is not present at a significant frequency in gnomAD, and in silico models agree that this variant is possibly or probably damaging. In conclusion, we classify TK2 Asn58Ser (c.173A>G) as a pathogenic variant. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: TK2 c.173A>G (p.Asn58Ser), also known as N100S, results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Deoxynucleoside kinase domain (IPR031314) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 251478 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TK2 causing Mitochondrial DNA Depletion Syndrome - TK2 Related (4.4e-05 vs 0.0011). c.173A>G has been reported in the literature in the homozygous or presumed compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with clinical features of Mitochondrial DNA Depletion Syndrome - TK2 Related (example, Garone_2018, Wang_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence suggesting disturbed ribonucleotide incorporation ratios in mitochondrial DNA in a patient cell line, however, does not allow clear conclusions about the variant effect (example, Berglund_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28207748, 29602790, 29735374). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38978). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
