Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 4P and 3B. PM1 PM2 BP4_Moderate BP6

The NM_001110792.2(MECP2):​c.1211A>C​(p.Glu404Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E404D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

MECP2 (HGNC:6990): (methyl-CpG binding protein 2) DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 comprise a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, is capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA. MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. In contrast to other MBD family members, MECP2 is X-linked and subject to X inactivation. MECP2 is dispensible in stem cells, but is essential for embryonic development. MECP2 gene mutations are the cause of most cases of Rett syndrome, a progressive neurologic developmental disorder and one of the most common causes of cognitive disability in females. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 14 benign, 12 uncertain in NM_001110792.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.22795776).
• BP6: Variant X-154030653-T-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chrX-154030653-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 536582.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submission is: [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity].

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.E392A variant (also known as c.1175A>C), located in coding exon 3 of the MECP2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1175. The glutamic acid at codon 392 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
