Megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome 2 Pathogenic:7Other:1
Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as de novoo and observed in at least four similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 23745724, 22729224, PS2, PS4_M). The variant was observed as assumed (i.e. paternity and maternity not confirmed) de novoo (3billion dataset, PM6). It is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (PM2. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism (PP2). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 465 of the AKT3 protein (p.Arg465Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with overlapping features of megalencephaly-capillary malformation (MCAP) and megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome (MPPH) (PMID: 22729224, 23745724). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 39814). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects AKT3 function (PMID: 22729224, 23745724, 24705253). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
This variant has been identified by standard clinical testing. de novo Selected ACMG criteria: Pathogenic (II):PP3;PP2;PM2;PS4;PS2
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0101 - Gain of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome 2 (MPPH) (MIM#615937) (GeneReviews). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to tryptophan. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated kinase C-terminal domain (DECIPHER, Uniprot). (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. It has been identified in at least five patients, including proven de novo events, and has been classified as pathogenic by diagnostic laboratories in ClinVar (DECIPHER; PMID: 22729224, 29286531, 33176815). (SP) 1204 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status not tested but assumed). (SP) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign

Published functional studies demonstrate that R465W caused increased activity compared to wild-type AKT3 (Alcantara et al., 2017); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28475857, 28973083, 29286531, 32446860, 33942996, 33176815, 31785789, 22729224, 23592320, 25140959, 28969385)

The AKT3 c.1393C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg465Trp. This variant has been reported de novo in multiple individuals with megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome 2 (Rivière et al. 2012. PMID: 22729224, Table 1 Alacantara et al. 2017. PMID: 28969385, eTable 3 Meng et al. 2017. PMID: 28973083, S Table 1 Tumiene et al. 2018.

This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
