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]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The p.Pro393Leu variant in MECP2 (NM_004992.4) is observed in at least 2 unaffected individuals (internal database - Ambry, internal database - Invitae) (BS2). The p.Pro393Leu variant is found in a patient with an alternate molecular basis of disease (internal database - Ambry) (BP5). The highest population minor allele frequency of the p.Pro393Leu variant in MECP2 in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.00002210 in Admixed American population (not sufficient to meet BS1 criteria). In summary, the p.Pro393Leu variant in MECP2 is classified as Likely Benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (BS2, BP5). -

Severe neonatal-onset encephalopathy with microcephaly Uncertain:1
Sep 01, 2021
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline with leucine at codon 393 of the MECP2 protein (p.Pro393Leu). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and leucine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of MECP2-related conditions (PMID: 28186668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 143418). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MECP2 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. -
