Genes affected

MPZ (HGNC:7225): (myelin protein zero) This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMT1B) and other polyneuropathies, such as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) and congenital hypomyelinating neuropathy (CHN). A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 10 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 26 uncertain in NM_000530.8
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-161306824-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 637801.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 84 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.98749 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.4782 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease dominant intermediate D, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1B, autosomal dominant intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with neuropathic pain, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2J, neuropathy, congenital hypomyelinating, 2, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2I, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 3, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant 1-161306825-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-161306825-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 462794.

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. This variant disrupts the p.Ser111 amino acid residue in MPZ. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19293842, 25429913, 26310628). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MPZ function (PMID: 29687021). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 462794). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease type 1B (CMT1B) and/or inherited peripheral neuropathy (PMID: 26310628, 33179255). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 111 of the MPZ protein (p.Ser111Pro). -
