Genes affected

MBD5 (HGNC:20444): (methyl-CpG binding domain protein 5) This gene encodes a member of the methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) family. The MBD consists of about 70 residues and is the minimal region required for a methyl-CpG-binding protein binding specifically to methylated DNA. In addition to the MBD domain, this protein contains a PWWP domain (Pro-Trp-Trp-Pro motif), which consists of 100-150 amino acids and is found in numerous proteins that are involved in cell division, growth and differentiation. Mutations in this gene cause an autosomal dominant type of cognitive disability. The encoded protein interacts with the polycomb repressive complex PR-DUB which catalyzes the deubiquitination of a lysine residue of histone 2A. Haploinsufficiency of this gene is associated with a syndrome involving microcephaly, intellectual disabilities, severe speech impairment, and seizures. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but their full-length nature is not determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-148483221-AC-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-148483221-AC-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 468775.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in MBD5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23422940, 23587880). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MBD5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468775). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro878Hisfs*37) in the MBD5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
