Genes affected

BICD2 (HGNC:17208): (BICD cargo adaptor 2) This gene is one of two human homologs of Drosophila bicaudal-D and a member of the Bicoid family. It has been implicated in dynein-mediated, minus end-directed motility along microtubules. It has also been reported to be a phosphorylation target of NIMA related kinase 8. Two alternative splice variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, BICD2
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.20268142).
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 19 AD gene.

The p.Y68C variant (also known as c.203A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the BICD2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 203. The tyrosine at codon 68 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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 BICD2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 541285). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BICD2-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 68 of the BICD2 protein (p.Tyr68Cys). -
