Genes affected
MBD5 (HGNC:20444): (methyl-CpG binding domain protein 5) This gene encodes a member of the methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) family. The MBD consists of about 70 residues and is the minimal region required for a methyl-CpG-binding protein binding specifically to methylated DNA. In addition to the MBD domain, this protein contains a PWWP domain (Pro-Trp-Trp-Pro motif), which consists of 100-150 amino acids and is found in numerous proteins that are involved in cell division, growth and differentiation. Mutations in this gene cause an autosomal dominant type of cognitive disability. The encoded protein interacts with the polycomb repressive complex PR-DUB which catalyzes the deubiquitination of a lysine residue of histone 2A. Haploinsufficiency of this gene is associated with a syndrome involving microcephaly, intellectual disabilities, severe speech impairment, and seizures. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but their full-length nature is not determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 08, 2023Advanced 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 MBD5 protein function. This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 943 of the MBD5 protein (p.Gln943Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs377062993, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MBD5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206090). 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 testingGeneDxFeb 24, 2014p.Gln943Arg (CAG>CGG): c.2828 A>G in exon 10 of the MBD5 gene (NM_018328.4) The Q943R variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The Q943R variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals; however, Arginine is observed at this position in a distantly related species. In silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. To our knowledge, only deletions and frameshift mutations in MBD5 have been published in association with epilepsy. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in EPILEPSY panel(s). -
