Genes affected

SYNE2 (HGNC:17084): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear outer membrane protein that binds cytoplasmic F-actin. This binding tethers the nucleus to the cytoskeleton and aids in the maintenance of the structural integrity of the nucleus. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.88).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000046 (7/152256) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.000169 (7/41462). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000789. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 3 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd at 7 AD gene.

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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 538344). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs371534076, gnomAD 0.04%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This sequence change falls in intron 23 of the SYNE2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SYNE2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -
