Genes affected

CYP21A2 (HGNC:2600): (cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2) This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and hydroxylates steroids at the 21 position. Its activity is required for the synthesis of steroid hormones including cortisol and aldosterone. Mutations in this gene cause congenital adrenal hyperplasia. A related pseudogene is located near this gene; gene conversion events involving the functional gene and the pseudogene are thought to account for many cases of steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_000500.9
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 52 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 5 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 1.8021 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, simple virilizing form, classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, salt wasting form.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.845
