Genes affected

MORC2 (HGNC:23573): (MORC family CW-type zinc finger 2) This gene encodes a member of the Microrchidia (MORC) protein superfamily. The encoded protein is known to regulate the condensation of heterochromatin in response to DNA damage and play a role in repressing transcription. The protein has been found to regulate the activity of ATP citrate lyase via specific interaction with this enzyme in the cytosol of lipogenic breast cancer cells. The protein also plays a role in lipogenesis and adipocyte differentiation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

PP2

Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), MORC2. . Gene score misZ 3.2251 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.4393 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with Leigh syndrome, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2Z, developmental delay, impaired growth, dysmorphic facies, and axonal neuropathy.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.01894486).

This sequence change replaces valine with alanine at codon 545 of the MORC2 protein (p.Val545Ala). The valine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and alanine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MORC2-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. -
