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 Benign. Variant got -19 ACMG points.

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=0.009864181).
BP6
Variant 22-30942209-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr22-30942209-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 475595.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000256 (39/152356) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.00636 (33/5192). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00465. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 24 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 39 AD gene.
