Genes affected
CNTNAP2 (HGNC:13830): (contactin associated protein 2) This gene encodes a member of the neurexin family which functions in the vertebrate nervous system as cell adhesion molecules and receptors. This protein, like other neurexin proteins, contains epidermal growth factor repeats and laminin G domains. In addition, it includes an F5/8 type C domain, discoidin/neuropilin- and fibrinogen-like domains, thrombospondin N-terminal-like domains and a putative PDZ binding site. This protein is localized at the juxtaparanodes of myelinated axons, and mediates interactions between neurons and glia during nervous system development and is also involved in localization of potassium channels within differentiating axons. This gene encompasses almost 1.5% of chromosome 7 and is one of the largest genes in the human genome. It is directly bound and regulated by forkhead box protein P2, a transcription factor related to speech and language development. This gene has been implicated in multiple neurodevelopmental disorders, including Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, schizophrenia, epilepsy, autism, ADHD and intellectual disability.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468417). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CNTNAP2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys563*) in the CNTNAP2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CNTNAP2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19896112, 21827697, 25045150, 26843181, 27439707). -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1689_1690delTG (p.C563*) alteration, located in coding exon 11 of the CNTNAP2 gene, consists of a deletion of 2 nucleotides at position 1689 to 1690. This changes the amino acid from a cysteine (C) to a stop codon at amino acid position 563. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
