Genes affected
MFN2 (HGNC:16877): (mitofusin 2) This gene encodes a mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion and contributes to the maintenance and operation of the mitochondrial network. This protein is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and it may play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A2, and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy VI, which are both disorders of the peripheral nervous system. Defects in this gene have also been associated with early-onset stroke. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, autosomal recessive, type 2a2b; Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionJan 03, 2022Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with MFN2 related disorder (PMID:33415332, PS1_P). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Gln367Pro) has been reported to be associated with MFN2 related disorder (PMID:26801520, PM5_M). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (3CNET: 0.841, PP3_P). A missense variant is a common mechanism associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PP2_P). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000103, PM2_M).Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 13, 2021The p.Q367H variant (also known as c.1101G>C), located in coding exon 9 of the MFN2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1101. The glutamine at codon 367 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is unlikely to be causative of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, type 2A2A and/or hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy VIA; however, its contribution to the development of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, type 2A2B is uncertain. -
