Genes affected
MBD5 (HGNC:20444): (methyl-CpG binding domain protein 5) This gene encodes a member of the methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) family. The MBD consists of about 70 residues and is the minimal region required for a methyl-CpG-binding protein binding specifically to methylated DNA. In addition to the MBD domain, this protein contains a PWWP domain (Pro-Trp-Trp-Pro motif), which consists of 100-150 amino acids and is found in numerous proteins that are involved in cell division, growth and differentiation. Mutations in this gene cause an autosomal dominant type of cognitive disability. The encoded protein interacts with the polycomb repressive complex PR-DUB which catalyzes the deubiquitination of a lysine residue of histone 2A. Haploinsufficiency of this gene is associated with a syndrome involving microcephaly, intellectual disabilities, severe speech impairment, and seizures. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but their full-length nature is not determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

MBD5 NM_018328.4 exon 11 p.Gln1015Arg (c.3044A>G): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.1% (78/64570) of European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, including 1 homozygote (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-148485940-A-G?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is also present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as benign or likely benign (Variation ID:193911). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant suggests that this variant does not cause disease, but requires further evidence. Therefore this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
