Genes affected

MECP2 (HGNC:6990): (methyl-CpG binding protein 2) DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 comprise a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, is capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA. MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. In contrast to other MBD family members, MECP2 is X-linked and subject to X inactivation. MECP2 is dispensible in stem cells, but is essential for embryonic development. MECP2 gene mutations are the cause of most cases of Rett syndrome, a progressive neurologic developmental disorder and one of the most common causes of cognitive disability in females. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

The c.1 A>T mutation in the MECP2 gene has been reported previously in association with classic Rett syndrome (Saunders et al., 2009). The mutation alters the initiator Methionine codon in the MeCP2_e1 transcript of the MECP2 gene, and the resultant protein would be described as p.Met1?" using a question mark to signify that it is not known if the loss of Met1 means that all protein translation is completely prevented or if an abnormal protein is produced using an alternate Met. The variant is found in INFANT-EPI panel(s)." -
