Genes affected
MAP2K2 (HGNC:6842): (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK2/ERK3. The activation of this kinase itself is dependent on the Ser/Thr phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinase kinases. Mutations in this gene cause cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC syndrome), a disease characterized by heart defects, cognitive disability, and distinctive facial features similar to those found in Noonan syndrome. The inhibition or degradation of this kinase is also found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax. A pseudogene, which is located on chromosome 7, has been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Missense variants in this gene are a common cause of disease and they are underrepresented in the general population; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29493581)

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The MAP2K2 p.R313Q variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs151133017) and in ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Laboratory for Molecular Medicine at Partners HealthCare Personalized Medicine, GeneDx, and Clinical Genomics Lab at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital with associated condition of B Lymphoblastic Leukemia/Lymphoma with t(v;11q23.3); KMT2A Rearranged). The variant was identified in control databases in 14 of 282142 chromosomes (0 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.00005 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: South Asian in 4 of 30608 chromosomes (freq: 0.000131), African in 2 of 24896 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008) and European (non-Finnish) in 8 of 128808 chromosomes (freq: 0.000062), but was not observed in the Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish) or Other populations. The p.Arg313 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.

The MAP2K2 c.938G>A (p.Arg313Gln) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.013% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a deleterious effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with cardiofaciocutanous syndrome. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance.

The p.R313Q variant (also known as c.938G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the MAP2K2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 938. The arginine at codon 313 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 313 of the MAP2K2 protein (p.Arg313Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs151133017, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MAP2K2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40839). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MAP2K2 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
