Atrial septal defect 7 Uncertain:2
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3B. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with NKX2-5-related diseases, including atrial septal defect 7, with or without AV conduction defects (MIM#108900) and tetralogy of fallot (MIM#187500). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from glutamine to arginine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.001 for a dominant condition (33 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - Alternative amino acid changes at the same position have been observed in gnomAD (v3) (10 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0502 - Missense variant with conflicting in silico predictions and uninformative conservation. (I) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0708 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have conflicting previous evidence for pathogenicity. These variants (p.Gln22Lys, p.Gln22Glu) have been reported as VUS and in a family with atrial septal defect (ASD) and congenital heart disease (CHD). An additional missense variant (p.Gln22Pro) with a stronger Grantham change has also been reported as both a VUS and as pathogenic, and has been observed in a patient with CHD and tetralogy of fallot (TOF) (LOVD, ClinVar, PMID: 22179962, PMID: 31824610). (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant has been reported as likely pathogenic and more commonly as a VUS, and has been observed in several patients with ASD and TOF (LOVD, ClinVar, PMID: 31824610, PMID: 19181906). (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 22 of the NKX2-5 protein (p.Gln22Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs201442000, gnomAD 0.02%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with an atrial septal defect (PMID: 19181906, 38259611). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190840). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on NKX2-5 protein function. 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. -

Identified in a patient with an atrial septal defect in published literature (Draus et al., 2009); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Reported in ClinVar (ClinVar Variant ID# 190840; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20725931, 19181906, 33835496) -

Variant summary: NKX2-5 c.65A>G (p.Gln22Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 243024 control chromosomes (gnomAD), predominantly at a frequency of 0.00026 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 52 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NKX2-5 causing Congenital Heart Disease (5e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. c.65A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Atrial Septal Defects (Draus_2009) and Left Bundle Branch Block (Kohli_2021). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: all classified the variant as of uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The p.Q22R variant (also known as c.65A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the NKX2-5 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 65. The glutamine at codon 22 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in one individual with an atrial septal defect (Draus JM, J. Med. Genet. 2009 Feb; 46(2):115-22). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species; however, arginine is the reference amino acid in other 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 variant remains unclear. -
