The CYP21A2 c.710T>A (p.Ile237Asn) pathogenic variant (also known as I236N) is usually associated with the simple virilizing form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The variant has been found in at least one symptomatic individual. Functional evidence suggests that this variant may impact protein function. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces isoleucine with asparagine at codon 237 of the CYP21A2 protein (p.Ile237Asn). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases (gnomAD) is considered unreliable due to the presence of homologous sequence, such as pseudogenes or paralogs, in the genome. The c.710T>A (p.Ile237Asn) variant alone has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CYP21A2-related conditions. However, it has been reported to co-occur with the c.713T>A (p.Val238Glu) and c.719T>A (p.Met240Lys) variants in cis (on the same chromosome), which is known as the c.[710T>A;713T>A;719T>A] haplotype, E6 cluster, or CL6. This haplotype has been reported in the literature as homozygous or in combination with other CYP21A2 variants in individual(s) affected with classic salt-wasting, simple virilizing, and non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (PMID: 12915679, 1644925, 23359698, 26804566). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242761). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CYP21A2 protein function. The c.710T>A (p.Ile237Asn) variant alone affects CYP21A2 protein function, and the c.[710T>A;713T>A;719T>A] haplotype has been reported to abolish enzyme activity (PMID: 15623806). For these reasons, this variant on the c.[710T>A;713T>A;719T>A] haplotype has been classified as Pathogenic. -

PM1, PM2, PM5, PP3, PP5 -
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.003%). Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 1869518, 2249999, 28161392, 31333583). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (PMID: 28161392). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Variant summary: CYP21A2 c.710T>A (p.Ile237Asn) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.3e-05 in 150898 control chromosomes (gnomAD v3.1.2). p.I237N is found to be part of a recurrent cluster of 3 variants (I237N, V238E and M240K), which belongs to a group of common, pseudogene-derived mutations that are found in patients with classical CAH. This cluster of 3 variants is assumed to be transferred together from the CYP21A1P pseudogene to CYP21A2 in a continuous stretch of DNA (Robins_2005). To our knowledge, p.I237N has been reported in the literature as part of this cluster of 3 variants or in combination with only p.V238E in individuals affected with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (e.g. Higashi_1991, Barbat_1995, Lee_2006, Chang_2011, Kirac_2014, Essawi_2020, Wang_2021). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the p.I237N variant alone with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia. Nevertheless, experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function demonstrated that the p.I237N variant alone causes a severely reduced enzyme activity (Robins_2005). A ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
