Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Moderate

The NM_000399.5(EGR2):c.1076G>A(p.Arg359Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R359W) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
EGR2 (HGNC:3239): (early growth response 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor with three tandem C2H2-type zinc fingers. Defects in this gene are associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1D (CMT1D), Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4E (CMT4E), and with Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS). Multiple transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type I Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 10, 2022This variant disrupts the p.Arg359 amino acid residue in EGR2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10369870, 10371530, 11523566, 15947997, 17717711, 27159987). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 359 of the EGR2 protein (p.Arg359Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (PMID: 16198564). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41007). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available"). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
