Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM2_Supporting PP3 PP4 PS4_Moderate PM1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The p.Asp151Gly variant in MECP2 (NM_004992.3) has been reported in an individual with a clinical phenotype suggestive of Rett syndrome (PMID 15173251) (PP4). The p.Asp151Gly variant has been observed in at least 3 other individuals with atypical Rett syndrome or clinical features of Rett syndrome (PMID 15173251, 32472557, internal database - University of Chicago, internal database - Invitae) (PS4_Moderate). The p.Asp151Gly variant occurs in the well-characterized Methyl-DNA binding (MDB) functional domain of MECP2 (PM1). The p.Asp151Gly variant in MECP2 is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). In summary, the p.Asp151Gly variant in MECP2 is classified as Likely Pathogenic based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PS4_moderate, PM1, PM2_supporting, PP3, PP4).

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]
