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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 13 uncertain in NM_014874.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_014874.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The patient is with clinical indications of distal sensory neuropathy, neuropathic tremor, bilateral pyramidal signs, and MRI revealed lacunar infarct trigone. Patient was diagnosed to be affected with hereditary sensory motor neuropathy type 5 and has been evaluated for pathogenic variations in the gene MFN2. A heterozygous three base pair deletion in exon 11 of the MFN2 gene (chr1:12062143_12062145delGGC) that results in an in-frame deletion of amino acid Alanine at codon 383 (p.Ala383del;ENST00000235329) was detected. -
