Genes affected
MPZ (HGNC:7225): (myelin protein zero) This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMT1B) and other polyneuropathies, such as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) and congenital hypomyelinating neuropathy (CHN). A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 11 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 20 uncertain in NM_000530.8
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-161307376-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 217232.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 84 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.98749 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.4782 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease dominant intermediate D, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1B, autosomal dominant intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with neuropathic pain, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2J, neuropathy, congenital hypomyelinating, 2, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2I, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 3, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.2569502).

Missense variants in this gene are a common cause of disease and they are underrepresented in the general population; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26310628, 20461396, 14711881, 17602703, 16844954, 18337304) -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. This variant disrupts the p.His39 amino acid residue in MPZ. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 14711881, 16844954, 18337304, 26310628). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MPZ protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 531695). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of MPZ-related conditions (Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs371856018, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 39 of the MPZ protein (p.His39Arg). -
