Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2_Supporting PP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The p.Leu67Phe variant in CDKL5 is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (PM2_Supporting). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). The p.Leu67Phe variant is not currently published and is not present in additional databases (internal and publicly available), therefore, no additional criteria are applicable at this time. In summary, the p.Leu67Phe variant in CDKL5 is classified as a variant of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PM2_supporting, PP3).

Genes affected

CDKL5 (HGNC:11411): (cyclin dependent kinase like 5) This gene is a member of Ser/Thr protein kinase family and encodes a phosphorylated protein with protein kinase activity. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked infantile spasm syndrome (ISSX), also known as X-linked West syndrome, and Rett syndrome (RTT). Alternate transcriptional splice variants have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Centre for Population Genomics, CPG

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

This variant has been collected from RettBASE and curated to current modified ACMG/AMP criteria. Based on the classification scheme defined by the ClinGen Rett/Angelman-like Expert Panel for Rett/AS-like Disorders Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines VCEP 3.0, this variant is classified as variant of uncertain significance. At least the following criteria are met: This variant is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 67 of the CDKL5 protein (p.Leu67Phe). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CDKL5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 143791). 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 expected to disrupt CDKL5 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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. -
