Genes affected

KMT2A (HGNC:7132): (lysine methyltransferase 2A) This gene encodes a transcriptional coactivator that plays an essential role in regulating gene expression during early development and hematopoiesis. The encoded protein contains multiple conserved functional domains. One of these domains, the SET domain, is responsible for its histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferase activity which mediates chromatin modifications associated with epigenetic transcriptional activation. This protein is processed by the enzyme Taspase 1 into two fragments, MLL-C and MLL-N. These fragments reassociate and further assemble into different multiprotein complexes that regulate the transcription of specific target genes, including many of the HOX genes. Multiple chromosomal translocations involving this gene are the cause of certain acute lymphoid leukemias and acute myeloid leukemias. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-118504690-ATCTG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-118504690-ATCTG-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 37071.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr11-118504690-ATCTG-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val2936*) in the KMT2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in KMT2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22795537, 25810209, 29574747). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome (PMID: 22795537, 30287924). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
