Genes affected
MEGF8 (HGNC:3233): (multiple EGF like domains 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.021452338).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.00019 (278/1461378) while in subpopulation MID AF= 0.00139 (8/5762). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00103. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 163 alleles in male gnomad4_exome 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

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 30, 2019In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -

MEGF8-related Carpenter syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 21, 2021In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MEGF8-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs372350131, ExAC 0.1%). This sequence change replaces proline with leucine at codon 2100 of the MEGF8 protein (p.Pro2100Leu). The proline residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and leucine. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 27, 2022The c.6299C>T (p.P2100L) alteration is located in exon 36 (coding exon 36) of the MEGF8 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 6299, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 2100 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
