Genes affected
MEGF10 (HGNC:29634): (multiple EGF like domains 10) This gene encodes a member of the multiple epidermal growth factor-like domains protein family. The encoded protein plays a role in cell adhesion, motility and proliferation, and is a critical mediator of apoptotic cell phagocytosis as well as amyloid-beta peptide uptake in the brain. Expression of this gene may be associated with schizophrenia, and mutations in this gene are a cause of early-onset myopathy, areflexia, respiratory distress, and dysphagia (EMARDD) as well as congenital myopathy with minicores. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

MEGF10-related myopathy Uncertain:2
Jul 05, 2022
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 223 of the MEGF10 protein (p.Asp223Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs142221815, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MEGF10-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 350641). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C35"). 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.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

Variant summary: MEGF10 c.669T>A (p.Asp223Glu) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.5e-05 in 251424 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MEGF10 causing MEGF10-Related Myopathy, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.669T>A in individuals affected with MEGF10-Related Myopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 350641). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Jul 09, 2021
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.669T>A (p.D223E) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 6) of the MEGF10 gene. This alteration results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 669, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 223 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
