Genes affected
CPOX (HGNC:2321): (coproporphyrinogen oxidase) The protein encoded by this gene is the sixth enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway. The encoded enzyme is soluble and found in the intermembrane space of mitochondria. This enzyme catalyzes the stepwise oxidative decarboxylation of coproporphyrinogen III to protoporphyrinogen IX, a precursor of heme. Defects in this gene are a cause of hereditary coproporphyria (HCP).[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Identified in the heterozygous and homozygous state in individuals with clinical features of CPOX-related porphyria referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in the published literature (PMID: 33763395, 27959697, 11309681; elik et al. (2024) Gazi Medical Journal. 35 :76 https://openurl.ebsco.com/EPDB%3Agcd%3A8%3A29114392/detailv2?sid=ebsco%3Aplink%3Ascholar&id=ebsco%3Agcd%3A174987964&crl=c); Reported with a second CPOX variant on the same allele (in cis) in affected individuals from three families with hereditary coproporphyria, as well as without a second CPOX variant in an unaffected individual from one of these families (PMID: 12181641); Published functional studies demonstrate significantly reduced CPOX enzyme activity (PMID: 11309681); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 11309681, 27959697, 34426522, 31589614, 33763395, Wangetal2023[article], 12181641, Celik2024[article], 39267094)

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 447 of the CPOX protein (p.Arg447Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs28931603, gnomAD 0.1%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of coproporphyria (PMID: 11309681, 12181641, 27959697, 33763395). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 459). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CPOX protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CPOX function (PMID: 11309681). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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.
