Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_024596.5(MCPH1):​c.228G>A​(p.Val76=) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000274 in 1,461,452 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V76V) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

MCPH1 (HGNC:6954): (microcephalin 1) This gene encodes a DNA damage response protein. The encoded protein may play a role in G2/M checkpoint arrest via maintenance of inhibitory phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 1 and premature chromosome condensation syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.82).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-1.21 with no splicing effect.
