Genes affected
CNTNAP2 (HGNC:13830): (contactin associated protein 2) This gene encodes a member of the neurexin family which functions in the vertebrate nervous system as cell adhesion molecules and receptors. This protein, like other neurexin proteins, contains epidermal growth factor repeats and laminin G domains. In addition, it includes an F5/8 type C domain, discoidin/neuropilin- and fibrinogen-like domains, thrombospondin N-terminal-like domains and a putative PDZ binding site. This protein is localized at the juxtaparanodes of myelinated axons, and mediates interactions between neurons and glia during nervous system development and is also involved in localization of potassium channels within differentiating axons. This gene encompasses almost 1.5% of chromosome 7 and is one of the largest genes in the human genome. It is directly bound and regulated by forkhead box protein P2, a transcription factor related to speech and language development. This gene has been implicated in multiple neurodevelopmental disorders, including Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, schizophrenia, epilepsy, autism, ADHD and intellectual disability.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 20, 2022Variant summary: CNTNAP2 c.416A>G (p.Asn139Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Coagulation factor 5/8 C-terminal domain (IPR000421) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251456 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.416A>G has been reported in the literature in one individual affected with Epilepsy (Gokben_2017), however, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Pitt-Hopkins-Like Syndrome 1. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: the variant was classified as of uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Cortical dysplasia-focal epilepsy syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 25, 2022This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 139 of the CNTNAP2 protein (p.Asn139Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs370517200, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with early-onset epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 27734276). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205303). 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: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 13, 2016p.Asn139Ser (AAC>AGC): c.416 A>G in exon 4 of the CNTNAP2 gene (NM_014141.4). The Asn139Ser missense change has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The amino acid substitution is conservative, as Serine and Asparagine are both uncharged, polar amino acids. However, it alters a position in the discoidin-like domain that is highly conserved across species. Some in silico algorithms predict Asn139Ser may be damaging to protein structure/function, although other models suggest is is likely not pathogenic. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether Asn139Ser is a disease-causing mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in INFANT-EPI,CHILD-EPI panel(s). -
