Genes affected
MFN2 (HGNC:16877): (mitofusin 2) This gene encodes a mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion and contributes to the maintenance and operation of the mitochondrial network. This protein is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and it may play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A2, and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy VI, which are both disorders of the peripheral nervous system. Defects in this gene have also been associated with early-onset stroke. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 14, 2021This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 135 of the MFN2 protein (p.Arg135Gln). 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 MFN2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 549683). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 29858556). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). -
