Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong
The NM_030928.4(CDT1):c.1385G>A(p.Arg462Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000113 in 1,612,676 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R462W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

The R462Q variant in the CDT1 gene has been reported previously in the compound heterozygous state opposite of a second CDT1 variant in multiple unrelated individuals with Meier-Gorlin syndrome (Bicknell et al., 2011; de Munnik et al., 2012; Kim et al., 2017). In addition, two siblings with Meier-Gorlin syndrome were reported to be heterozygous for the R462Q variant, which they inherited from their unaffected father (de Munnik et al., 2012). Functional studies suggest R462Q is associated with impaired protein function (Pozo et al., 2018). Although not observed as homozygous, the R462Q variant is observed in 2/10104 (0.020%) alleles from individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish background and 16/275644 (0.0058%) total alleles in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The R462Q variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. We interpret R462Q as a likely pathogenic variant. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 462 of the CDT1 protein (p.Arg462Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs387906917, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Meier-Gorlin syndrome (PMID: 21358632). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30498). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Meier-Gorlin syndrome    Pathogenic:1 
The p.Arg462Gln variant in CDT1 has been reported in 4 compound heterozygous ind ividuals with Meier-Gorlin syndrome and segregated with the disease in 3 affecte d family members (Bicknekk 2011, de Munnik 2012); it has also been reported, in the heterozygous state in 2 siblings affected with the syndrome (de Munnik 2012) . This variant has been identified in 0.009% (11/125,656) of European chromosome s by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs387906917). Although this variant has been seen in the general populatio n, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequen cy. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID# 30498). Comput ational prediction tools do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In vitro functional studies, involving the orthologous mouse res idue provide some evidence that the p.Arg462Gln variant may impact protein funct ion (Bicknell 2011), however, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified a s likely pathogenic for Meier-Gorlin syndrome in an autosomal recessive manner b ased upon segregation studies, low frequency in controls, functional evidence.
