Genes affected
MLC1 (HGNC:17082): (modulator of VRAC current 1) The function of this gene product is unknown; however, homology to other proteins suggests that it may be an integral membrane transporter. Mutations in this gene have been associated with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts, an autosomal recessive neurological disorder. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: MLC1 c.206C>T (p.Ser69Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251294 control chromosomes. c.206C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Megalencephalic Leukoencephalopathy With Subcortical Cysts 1 (e.g. Yuzbasioglu_2011, Lopez-Hernandez_2011, Wang_2011). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence showing reduced or negligible MLC1 protein product in vitro and in vivo in post-mortem brain lysates (Lopez-Hernandez_2011). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21624973, 21160490, 21145992). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 69 of the MLC1 protein (p.Ser69Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs281875309, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (PMID: 21145992, 21160490, 21624973). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31622). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MLC1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MLC1 function (PMID: 21624973, 22416245). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
