Genes affected
CNTNAP2 (HGNC:13830): (contactin associated protein 2) This gene encodes a member of the neurexin family which functions in the vertebrate nervous system as cell adhesion molecules and receptors. This protein, like other neurexin proteins, contains epidermal growth factor repeats and laminin G domains. In addition, it includes an F5/8 type C domain, discoidin/neuropilin- and fibrinogen-like domains, thrombospondin N-terminal-like domains and a putative PDZ binding site. This protein is localized at the juxtaparanodes of myelinated axons, and mediates interactions between neurons and glia during nervous system development and is also involved in localization of potassium channels within differentiating axons. This gene encompasses almost 1.5% of chromosome 7 and is one of the largest genes in the human genome. It is directly bound and regulated by forkhead box protein P2, a transcription factor related to speech and language development. This gene has been implicated in multiple neurodevelopmental disorders, including Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, schizophrenia, epilepsy, autism, ADHD and intellectual disability.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 11, 2024Variant summary: CNTNAP2 c.1249G>T (p.Asp417Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Laminin G domain (IPR001791) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251086 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1249G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Rolandic epilepsy or Intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder/autistic traits without strong evidence of causality (e.g. Bobbili_2018, Carraro_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Autism, Susceptibility To, 15. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29358611, 31144778). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205236). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Cortical dysplasia-focal epilepsy syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 25, 2022This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 417 of the CNTNAP2 protein (p.Asp417Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs147815978, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Rolandic epilepsy (PMID: 29358611). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205236). 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 C0"). 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 03, 2018A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the CNTNAP2 gene. The D417Y variant hasnot been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to ourknowledge. The D417Y variant is observed in 9/111,478 (0.008%) alleles from individuals ofEuropean background (Lek et al., 2016). The D417Y variant is a non-conservative amino acidsubstitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity,charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position where amino acids with similar properties to Aspartic acid are tolerated across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
